TESTIMONY
I started reading this Book titled LIFE IN VENE-AH KINGDOM by Opeyemi O.

Akintunde
It's basically a book about the Beauty and Glamour of Heaven
As I was reading, at a point I began questioning why all the gainsaying and
exaggerations about Heaven, a place the writer has not been herself?
Unbelief and doubts were rising in my mind
I sensed it and quickly prayed about them.

I continued reading
Moments later The Great One, Sweet Holy Spirit spoke and asked me, Tosin where is
the most beautiful House you have ever been to?
After searching my mind, I concluded it was the house of the parents of a brother in our
church that my mum took me along to visit them sometimes back in 2010.
Then He said, you haven't beheld so much Beauty that is why your mind cannot capture
and imagine the Wonders and Beauty of Heaven.
*You just have to believe it by FAITH!*
Wow, I was surprised how my mind is so used to the dirties of the bodija market of
Ibadan and roughness of Lagos that I can no longer articulate Beauty.....
This cannot only be my case.
*Do you doubt the Wonders and Beauties of Heaven?*

It is not our fault
All you and I need do is to Believe by FAITH
HEAVEN IS REAL, BEAUTIFUL AND TRANSCENDS OUR IMAGINATIONS.

As Inspired by the HOLY ONE
“I love you but my wife has to be dead before I can marry you!” Freeman
said to Beauty.
Beauty locked her eyes with his. She could see that was the first time he was
saying the truth to her.
It had been two years. She had been asking him the same question.
“Why can‟t we be together? I don‟t mind becoming your second wife! Get
me an apartment not too far away from your home and I promise to stay
away from your first family!”
These were her usual words whenever Freeman was in a good mood and his
usual response was…
“Beauty, we can‟t be together. What we have is more than enough!”
Hearing him say that if his wife died, he would marry her was the best thing
she had heard the entire year.
“Then let‟s get her out of the way!” Beauty said under her breath but
Freeman didn‟t pick up the words as he was already on a call. He picked up
his car keys and sauntered out of the room blowing Beauty a goodnight
kiss.
Their routine for the last two years had been the same. He would leave his
office at exactly 4 pm , get to her place by 4:20 pm and stay till 9 pm. After
which, he left for home.
Freeman walked towards his car. He was going home!
7
"Home! Home sweet Home!" Freeman thought happily. He had two

beautiful worlds.
Life was good! He had everything good. He was his own boss, he was just 39
years old and he was a king in the ICT sector in the country.
He was also fortunate to have two women in his life. He was having fun
enjoying the two roles; husband and boyfriend. He was the husband to
Pamilerin and they have three beautiful daughters; Venita, Juanita, and
Theresa. He wouldn‟t trade his family for anything in the world. He loved
them to death.
But...
Beauty was a worthy distraction. Areas where his wife fell short, Beauty
made up. Pamilerin was not romantic, but Beauty was a die-hard romantic.
Pamilerin was not much of a cook as she was raised by very rich guardians,
but Beauty was a professor in the kitchen.
Pamilerin was cool-headed and didn‟t like adventure, but Beauty knew how
to bring out the baby in him.
However, Pamilerin had her good sides. Pamilerin was calculating and
smart, while Beauty was Beauty without brains. Beauty did not like
thinking too hard, but whenever he needed good advice about his
investment, Pamilerin was his girl.
8
Pamilerin was his Lucky Charm. Pamilerin knew when a business would
fail. Whenever Pamilerin was happy with him, his business was always
skyrocketing.
“Am I not the luckiest man on earth, I have all I want!” Freeman said to
himself as he got into his “expensive machine of a car” as his friend Rele
calls it.
***
“I told you, didn‟t I?” Winter said to Beauty over the phone.
“I know! Don‟t rub it in my face!” Beauty replied.
“I have told you side chicks like us don‟t get the main seat unless we
eliminate the one occupying it.”
“Winter, I don't want to unseat Freeman‟s wife, I just want him to create
another seat for me. I don‟t mind sharing him" Beauty answered.
"So why are we having this conversation?" Winter asked angrily.
"Because I want your advice!"
"Well I have given it, but you have chosen not to take it!" Winter replied
angrily.
"Are you suggesting we kill her?"
"I am suggesting YOU kill her. I am not the one interested in marrying
Freeman, you are! If I was in your shoes, we would have been celebrating
her second-year memorial by now! Babe, I am in my third marriage, how do
you think I did it?"
9
"You target a happily married man, kill his wife, marry him, kill him and
inherit his money!" Beauty said. Her friend Winter had been married three
times and the first two men had died mysteriously. Her first husband was
in Jamaica, second in Canada, the recent one who was unfortunately under
her radar was in Nigeria. She had recently eliminated the wife and was
waiting for him to die.
"Winter, teach me what to do? I want to be like you, but not all the way. I
don't want Freeman dead, I just want him and his daughters to be mine!"
Beauty said.

PART 2
©Opeyemi Akintunde
"Dad is back!” Juanita screamed from the living room.
Juanita was the loud one amongst the trio and she was her father's gisting
partner. She ensured she and her sisters stayed up late till their father
returned every day. Pamilerin had to move their bedtime to 10 pm because
Juanita was always flouting the 9:15 pm bedtime rule.
Pamilerin dropped the knife in her hand. She and Remi were slicing the
vegetables for the spaghetti the girls would have the next day.
"Remi continue,” Pamilerin instructed as she dried her wet hand with a
kitchen towel.
"So Henry poked Funsho with a sharp pencil because Funsho called him a
fat ugly elephant," Juanita was obviously recounting what must have
happened in her class. Pamilerin shook her head in admiration at her
daughter. The two other girls were her replica especially her first daughter.
They spoke less. Juanita was a copy of her father. They loved conversations.
"You don't mean it!" Freeman replied.
"I am serious Daddy!"
"So what punishment did the teacher give him?"
11
"He was told to go to the Naughty corner!"
"Oh nice! That means he would have time to reflect on his bad behaviour."
"Reflect?" Theresa echoed the word. Theresa was only five years old, but
she was a walking dictionary in the making. Pamilerin saw herself in
Theresa. Theresa never allowed new words to pass by.
"Yes, Theresa! Reflect means to think deeply!" Freeman answered knowing

what Theresa wanted.
"Ok!" Theresa said satisfactorily but as Juanita was about to continue with
her story, Theresa cut in again “Is it only at the Naughty corner people can
reflect?"she asked.
"Well, not necessarily, but in some cases, some people need to be pushed
into a quiet space without friends before they can deeply reflect!" Freeman
replied.
"But, it's not a good thing to be pushed before one can reflect. One should
develop the personal responsibility to reflect on one's actions constantly"
The teacher in Pamilerin spoke up.
"Yes... mummy is absolutely right!"
Pamilerin deliberately said those words, she wanted Freeman to reflect on

his wrong ways. She knew he had been cheating on her recently, but she
didn't want to bring it up. Pamilerin felt everyone should be responsible for
their actions and inactions.
12
"Even adults sometimes need to reflect on their lives, that way they are able
to see where they are going wrong and this will help them to correct their
wrongs!" Pamilerin said to the girls but her gaze was on Freeman.
Venita was very smart and a complete replica of Pamilerin. Though she was
10 years old, she acted 30. She could tell from her mother's words, that it
was time they excused their parents.
"Juanita! Theresa! it's time to go to bed. Tomorrow is here already" Venita

pushed her sisters up the stairs.
"It's not yet 10..." Juanita rebelled.
"Juanita, Venita is right!" Freeman said. He had also sensed the hidden
words laced in Pamilerin's words.
"Babe... What is wrong?" Freeman asked after ensuring the girls were no
more in sight
"Remi is in the kitchen!" Pamilerin replied.
"Remi!" Freeman called out.
"Yes sir! Welcome sir!" Remi greeted as she rushed out of the kitchen.
"To your room!" Freeman responded.
"Em ...sir... I..." Remi said wanting to explain that she had something
frying.
13
"To your room!" Freeman repeated.
Remi ran towards her room. She had been living with the couple for 11
years, she came when Pamilerin was pregnant with Venita and though she
came in as a maid, she had become more of a younger sister to Pamilerin.
As she walked towards her room, she wondered what was wrong. Instead of
entering her room, she stood at the corridor hoping to eavesdrop.
"Babe, I ask again, what do I need to reflect on? I know when you are
speaking to me indirectly." Freeman asked. His heart was beating fast, he
didn't know what to expect.
"Who is she?" Pamilerin asked firmly without perambulating.
"Who?" Freeman was caught off guard.
"The girl you are cheating on me with?"
"Beauty!" Freeman replied. He knew there was no point lying. Pamilerin

was highly calculating and she wasn't someone who assumed things. Her
life quote was "Assumption is the lowest level of understanding". Therefore,
Freeman knew that before his wife could accuse him directly, she most
definitely had her facts.
"I am sorry!"
"Are you?"
14
"Yes... Babe... I am!"
"How long?"
"Two years!"
Pamilerin was shocked and pained. The pain was not because he was
cheating but because of how long he had been double-faced with her.
"Ok...thank you!" Pamilerin said as she walked away.
"Babe, I am sorry!"
"For what? Exactly what are you sorry for? For cheating on me? Or for
being caught?”
"Both! I am sorry...You don't deserve this. I guess I just got carried away by
her beauty!" Freeman explained, "Babe I am sorry I promise to end it now!"
Freeman brought out his phone. He dialed Beauty's number. He didn't save
her contact. He already knew it by heart. Pamilerin noticed and that tore
her heart more. Pamilerin could deduce the girl in question must have
found a place in her husband's heart for him to have her phone number at
the tip of his fingers.
"Hello Beauty!" he said into the phone.
15
"Hey Babe... Strange! You are calling me from home. Something wrong with
wifey?" Beauty asked.
"She knows about us and that means this has to end! Babe... I mean Beauty.
It's over!" Freeman struggled to say.
Beauty went silent for a long time, Freeman waited to hear from her. He
wanted to hear something even if it was a word.
"You are joking...You know right?" Beauty said laughing before ending the
call.
"What did she say?" Pamilerin asked.
"She said it's okay!" Freeman lied.

"You don't say!" Winter said very bewildered.
"I can't believe Freeman would say that to me," Beauty said in tears.
"Sorry."
"I can't believe Freeman would break up with me that easily and sharply
because his wife found out about us. He could have denied it!" Beauty
continued her tears.
"This is not good for you." Winter said at last after about three minutes of
silence.
"What?"
"Her knowing about you. When a wife gets to know there is a side chick
involved in her marriage, the wife usually goes on the defensive. Depending
on who the wife is, some side chicks never live to tell the story."
"You mean she may want to kill me?"
"Tell me about her. Who is she? Because if she is one of these born-again
Christians, just know that the relationship is over. She will use prayers and
17
good character to win her husband back. If she is a diabolical person, she
will probably turn her husband into a love-sick baby. He will totally forget
about you and return to her like a baby or is she a physical person? If she
is, she is capable of defending herself by sending assassins against you."
Winter said.
"I don't know much about her." Beauty replied.
"You are dating a woman's husband and you never bothered to keep tabs on
her?" Winter said rolling her eyes.
"We need to know who we are up against so that we can use the right
weapon against her." Winter explained.
"Ok!" Beauty responded.
"Ok? Is that all that you are going to say? You should be worried now. Being
a side chick is not for babies. Lesson 101 of being a successful side chick-
"Never ever let the wife get a wind of you, be a green snake under the green
grass. You lay low and unseen so that when you strike, you strike and kill."
"But now that she knows, what do we do?" Beauty asked.
"We take it a day at a time. First, let's find out what kind of wife she is. In
the meantime, don't pick his calls anymore! Give them false hope that it is
over."
"Ok!" Beauty answered weakly. Everything happening was too much for
her. She had hoped to be Freeman's second wife. She didn't want any shade
18
of complexity, but everything was beginning to look complicated. She didn‟t

like using her brain to think about complex issues.
***
Sleep was far away from Freeman. He sat at the dining table with his eyes
wide opened at 1:40 am. The previous day that began as a seemingly nice
day had ended badly. He could still perceive the harsh smell of the burnt
vegetables. They had been so engrossed in their conversation, that neither
of them perceived the burnt vegetables. It was Remi who ran out of her
room towards the kitchen that snapped them out of their thoughts.
"I am sorry sir, I was trying to tell you I was frying the vegetables," Remi
said in a rush, in her defense as she ran towards the kitchen.
With that, Pamilerin had walked towards their room. Her head was
spinning.
"Pamilerin! Pamilerin!" Freeman called.
"Yes?"
"I am sorry!"
"It's ok, I just have a headache and need to get to bed early," Pamilerin
replied.
Freeman wasn't expecting less. He and Pamilerin usually stayed late into
the night to discuss the day and how business went but here was Pamilerin
going to bed early.
19
"Ok!" Freeman replied. He could tell his world was going to crash any
moment.
Freeman paced around thinking about Beauty as well. He feared what she
might do to herself. When he met Beauty two years earlier, she was
struggling with depression and suicidal thoughts. He was the one who
helped her get through the phase. He feared that this abrupt breakup
might break her completely.
But...
"Who is more important? She or your family?" Freeman asked himself.
"Obviously my family, though I love Beauty, I would never place her welfare
above that of my family. She will always be secondary." Freeman told
himself the blunt truth.
***
Pamilerin had slept off after hours of crying. She had expected him to come
in and keep apologizing but instead, he sat in the living room. She believed
he was apologizing to the other woman.
"How am I going to solve this? How will I get back my paradise?" Pamilerin
had asked herself amidst sobs.
"God, who is this girl, lady or woman? I don't even know who she is."
"Keep Calm and know that I am God!" Pamilerin heard those words loud
and clear.
And those words comforted her.
***
20
"Pay me two million and I will eliminate her in three months and guess
what you won't have to move a muscle... I will do all the background checks
and will eliminate her in the best untraceable way." Winter said.
"1 million," Beauty negotiated,

"1.8 million," Winter replied.
"1.2," Beauty pressed further.
"1.5,” she said firmly and then continued, “Babe that's the lowest I can go,
you know what you stand to gain when the woman exits, all that your guy
has will automatically become yours. You told me the guy is a cash bag..."
she was saying but Beauty cuts in…
"Fine! Which account should I transfer the money to?"

"I will send it to you in a minute."
"Hold on, so what do I do after sending you the money?" Beauty asked.
"Nothing, just avoid him so no one would trace her death to you and go
shopping for a beautiful black dress you will be rocking to her funeral
soon!"
"Thanks babe."
"Anything for you darling!"

PART 4
©Opeyemi Akintunde
Pamilerin was fully awake on the bed while Freeman dressed up for work,
however, she pretended to be asleep as she couldn‟t stand looking him in
the eye that morning. Her heart was still hurt by his betrayal.
“See you later!” Freeman said as he moved closer to give Pamilerin the
usual kiss on the forehead. Pamilerin didn‟t move an inch. She laid down
like a log of wood. Freeman withdrew from her. He watched how she was
pretending to be asleep. This was the first time in a long while he wasn't
going to get the usual "God's presence goes with you!".
Pamilerin made it a duty to always say that to him every morning before
going to work.
Freeman knew it was going to take a while before Pamilerin returned to her
usual self. He couldn‟t blame her. He had messed up real big and he was
going to fix it.
***
Beauty was a mess, she called in sick at the office. She wasn‟t in the right
frame of mind to be at work. All night she had been eating anything and
everything. That was her way of coping with depression. She could smell
depression and suicide coming close. She had been very unfortunate with
relationships. She couldn‟t count the heartbreaks she had suffered in her 29
years. First, her parents deserted her at the age of three and relocated to the
United States leaving her paternal grandmother to care for her.
According to her parents, they thought they would send for her later but
unfortunately, on getting there, things did not go as planned. They could
not file for her to join them. Hence, she remained in Nigeria while they sent
her money from time to time for her academics and welfare. However, her
welfare money was managed by her grandmother who used it for everyone
22
at home. Beauty faced a lot of emotional abuse growing up, she was also
raped on several occasions. All the emotional scars made relationships a
war zone for her. She was always very defensive, bitter, and angry in her
relationships.
Freeman was different; Freeman was the only one she felt safe with. She
had met Freeman at a pharmaceutical store. She had gone there to buy
some anti-depressant drugs which the pharmacist refused to sell to her if
she did not provide a doctor‟s prescription. Beauty had gone bunkers
screaming at the pharmacist.
***
Freeman drove towards Beauty's house to end things with her. He knew
Beauty so well to know that she wasn‟t going to go to work that morning. As
he drove, he took the time to cast his mind back to how they had met.
TWO YEARS EARLIER.
Freeman was at the pharmacy to buy some pain relief pills. He observed
how Beauty was hell-bent on buying some anti-depressant drugs which
unfortunately for her, the pharmacist needed a prescription to sell to her.
He saw how jittery she was, he could understand what Beauty was going
through. He had been a victim of depression in the past. After graduating
from school at the young age of 21, he couldn‟t secure a Job for five years.
He knew he was very smart but yet he was wasting away.
Good luck came his way when he met Pamilerin at her guardians‟ company.
She was the HR who was hiring. After his interview, Pamilerin had said
with a smile
“Mr. Freeman, you are smart but you have a loser‟s demeanor. I could read
fear, defeat, uncertainty in your eyes ... in your hand movements and in
23
your voice. Put in mind that whenever you go into the interview room, go
with the mind that you are going in for a conversation, not an interview. Be
bold, be relaxed and be friendly. That way you would get the job.
“Judging from your interview today, she continued, I ought not to consider
you for the Job, but the Lord said I should employ you! You got the job!”
Pamilerin had said.
Freeman sat for another few seconds before what Pamilerin said made
sense to him.
Freeman remembered Pamilerin helping him out of depression and on

seeing Beauty that evening, he felt he could pass on the good to her.
He had approached Beauty and asked her to come with him.
“Hello ma‟am... Can you come with me? I can be of help!” Freeman had told
her.
Beauty didn‟t pay him any attention. After his failed persuasion, Freeman
left her and went into his car after paying for his drugs.
Freeman waited for another 15 minutes in his car, observing Beauty.

Eventually, he watched Beauty leaving the pharmacy with nothing in her
hands. As she walked towards his car, he jumped out of his car and
approached her.
“What do you want? I am not a sex worker if that is what you are thinking,”
Beauty stated.
24
“I am happily married,” Freeman announced showing off his ring.
“So what do you want?”
“I want to help you, I have faced depression before and I know where that
leads to, it doesn‟t lead to a good place, but a friend who is now my wife was
the one who helped me overcome my depression. Today, I have the best life
I never thought I could have. I am grateful I didn‟t throw this beautiful
future away out of depression.”
Beauty looked at him intently.
“How did she help you? What did you have to do? I want out of depression.”
“Friendship. She became my friend. Can I be your friend?” Freeman had

asked innocently.
***
Beauty remembered how their friendship had started innocently, but as
months went by it became deep friendship and one day when she was a bit
under the weather, he came over to her house. They both lost control and
threw caution in the air.
“I can‟t lose him! I can‟t! I was fine with being the second wife, I was not
selfish, so why do I get to lose him? No way!” Beauty said to herself before
hearing the familiar knock.
“He is here!” She gasped.
To be continued…

PART 5
©Opeyemi Akintunde
Beauty felt the familiar butterflies in her stomach. She didn‟t want to open
the door for him, she didn‟t trust herself. She was going to fail at what
Winter asked her to do. How was she going to see Freeman and not kiss
him, hug him or jump on him?.
“Beauty! I know you are in there! Please open up! You know I love you and
this is not easy for me. Please open up and let‟s discuss this!” Freeman said
“He still loves me!” Beauty said to herself as she fell to the ground crying.
“Please ... Bee open up... I promise you, we will sort this out... I love you
Bae, everything that happened was sudden... Please just give me five
minutes.”
Beauty couldn‟t control herself anymore. She flung the door open and
rushed into Freeman‟s arms. She held onto him tightly
“I am not letting you go, she can‟t take you from me, please... I am sorry for
asking you to marry me, don‟t bother, I am fine with being the mistress. She
won‟t have to know about me...” Beauty said in rush
“No... Beauty, you deserve better... You are worth more than being a
mistress or a second wife. You will find a better man!”
“I don‟t want a better man. I want you. You make my life worth living. Do
you want me to talk to her? I can tell her I won‟t be a bother”
“You will do no such thing... Please...”
“Freeman, you love me and that is what I will tell her!”

26
“Beauty, I love you but I love my wife in a deeper and complex way. Bee, I
love you but you cannot replace my wife. I mean... I love you but I can‟t
leave my wife for you. I have kids you know. Bee, I love you, and though you
we connect sexually on a very high level, but I cannot hurt my wife! I can‟t!
There are so many things attached to this, first, she is the mother of my
kids, secondly, she is my lawfully wedded wife, thirdly, She MADE me, and
fourthly it‟s not about us alone, I have in-laws and extended in-laws. I can‟t
disappoint them all because of what we have!” Freeman explained.
Beauty felt like a piece of discarded tissue. She moved back from Freeman
in utter shock. Freeman just told her in plain language that she was nothing
to him.
“Ok... “
“I hope what I just said did not come out the wrong way. The truth is I love
you, but...”
“But, your wife is more important.” Beauty interjected.
“For your troubles, please have this...” Freeman brought out a cheque of
two million Naira.
Beauty didn‟t know which was worse; Freeman breaking up with her or him
paying her off like a prostitute or cheap blackmailer.
“What?” Beauty asked in what sounded more like a whisper.
27
Freeman moved closer to her, he tucked the cheque into her palm. Beauty
opened her palm and watched the cheque fall off. It felt like a burning
substance in her hand.
“Freeman! Out! I get it! I am your second fiddle! I am just the girl you
while away your time with, I am the girl you enjoy sex with but who can
never take the place of your wife, I am the girl who makes you smile, your
tool of amusement, I am the one that has to be hidden, while your wife
follows you to public functions. I should have known being the side chick
was not honorable. You flaunt your wife and kids on social media but no
one gets to know about me. You are right, I deserve better... I accept
everything you have said but for trying to pay me off... I hate you! Out of my
house now!” Beauty said angrily.
“I am sorry! I didn‟t mean it that way.”
“Out!”
“Can I at least kiss you goodbye?” Freeman asked.
“You are mad!” were the words Beauty wanted to say to Freeman but she
stopped herself.
“Action they say is better than words, I will let my actions speak,” she
reasoned.
Beauty walked closer to him, and gently she placed her lips on his. At first,
the usual surge of excitement shot through her veins but she remembered
her mission. With all the determination in the world, she bit his lip so hard
the pain went straight to Freeman‟s brain.
Freeman tried pushing Beauty off him, but she held on to the lips with her
teeth like her life depended on it.
“Pleaseeeee!” Freeman groaned as he struggled to push Beauty off.
28
After few seconds of struggle, Beauty released his lips.
“I decided to give you a souvenir of pain that you will nurse for a while, it
should remind you of the pain you have inflicted on me. I hate you and I
mean it!”
Freeman touched his sore lips. He knew without a doubt he couldn‟t go to

work again. Soon, he would have a swollen lip.
Freeman walked out of Beauty‟s house. He knew that was the end. He
would lose anything to keep Pamilerin.
***
After the kids left for school, Pamilerin felt the urge to talk to someone, she
needed to talk, or else she felt she was going to run mad. She wanted to
burst out. She thought of calling her wealthy guardians who raised her, but
her calculating brain told her it was not a good move. Her guardians were
the ones connecting Freeman to their wealthy friends and associates.
Telling them of his infidelity was going to hinder things.
So she dropped the thought of contacting her guardians.
Her Birth Mother! Ajoke!
Pamilerin left her birth mother at the age of 10 to work as a house maid for
her guardians but on getting there, her guardians noticed her smartness
and they decided to help her academically.
She lived with them for 16 years before getting married to Freeman. It was
at the point of marriage that she became close to her birth mother. Over the
29
years while living with her guardians, her birth mother was permitted to
come see her as she willed but her birth mother came only a few times.
After marriage, she became closer to her, though there were things they still
had not agreed on. Her birth mother still believed in fetish ways of
resolving issues.
“Hello Maami, how are you?”
“Pamilerin, Bawo ni? (How are you?)” Ajoke replied.
“Mo wa, sugbon wahala die wa!” (I am fine, but there is a little problem).
“Which is?” Ajoke asked in Yoruba language.
“There is another woman between my husband and I” Pamilerin said

sobbing.
“Nibo? Nibo lo ti n bo?” (Where is she coming from?)

“I don‟t know... but they have been together for two years,” Pamilerin said
as she raised her voice.
“Pamilerin, laughter is your portion, not crying. Leave that useless thing to
me. You will hear the report of her situation soon!”
“Maami, what are you planning to do? I didn‟t call you to do anything. I just
called you to encourage me.”
“This is me encouraging you! Don‟t worry, your worries are already over,”
Ajoke said in Yoruba adding some proverbial statements Pamilerin did not
understand.

.
Freeman walked into his home. His lips were swollen real bad.
Pamilerin was seated in the living room with no thoughts in her head. She
was still trying to live in denial that everything that was happening was all a
figment of her imagination.
The creaking sound of the door made her conscious of her environment
once again. Freeman's big lips caught her immediate attention. On impulse,
she ran towards him in fear.
"What happened?" Pamilerin asked in concern.
Freeman saw the genuine look of concern on Pamilerin's face. Common

sense told him that was the time to weaken Pamilerin's anger towards him.
"She didn't take my breakup easily. She punched me on the lip because I
told her I couldn't leave my wife for her. I was trying to tell her we were a
big mistake which I had been trying to stop for a long time but I had been
failing countless times," Freeman said with a pitiful look on his face.
Pamilerin stared hard at Freeman.
"Are you saying it‟s over?" Pamilerin asked while standing akimbo.
"Yes. I will never set my eyes on her again!"
31
"I hope so because when single girls fall in love with married men, they find
it hard to cut off and most times they end up ruthless if they are forced to
quit the relationship. Are you sure she won't be coming back?"
"No, I have paid her off!"
Pamilerin raised her eyebrow in a questioning manner.
"I gave her N2 million!"
"Ok...if she is not a gold digger or a cheap blackmailer, that should be more
than enough," Pamilerin said.
"Am I forgiven?" Freeman asked.
"Still thinking!" Pamilerin said as she sat back on the chair in the living
room. Freeman could sense forgiveness in the air. This was exactly why he
loved his wife. Pamilerin was not the complicated kind of person. He
walked close to her and planted a kiss on her cheek.
"Thank you for being the best wife ever."
***
"He did that?" Winter asked Beauty over the phone.
"Yes, that was the biggest insult ever!"
32
"Insult? He insulted you?" Winter asked again.
"Yes, he trying to pay me off is a big insult."
"My dear, please let me get this, a man pays you N2million for the 2 years
you spent together as compensation? That guy is definitely a good guy.
Babe, if all men could pay ladies compensation fee after breaking up with
them, we would have a lot of rich single babes."
"I don't need his money, I need him... I love him. "
"Babe, if it is about getting him back, I will get him back but my best advice
is, cash out immediately and forget the guy. There are a lot of guys out there
and If dating married men is your preferred spec, there are a lot of them out
there... This one ... let him go... If a man pays a girl off, it means he
genuinely doesn't want to have anything to do with her again. Men don't
part with their money easily” Winter said.
Beauty felt like something just slipped off her hand. She felt it and she knew
it; Freeman was off her grip.
Simultaneously, she felt something fly into her eyes. She tried to get it out
but the more she dipped her finger into her eyes, whatever it was, kept
plunging in.
"Are you there?" Winter asked.
"Yeah, something flew into my eyes. I will call you later! Let me get it out"
***
Winter dropped her phone in utter shock. She sat back in her chair.
33
"N2 million!" she kept saying over and over.
"The guy must be loaded for him to want to throw away N2million just like
that! Hmm.... Winter, are you thinking what I am thinking?" she
soliloquized.
***
"Done!" Ajoke's herbalist boasted to her.
"Those eyes she used in seeing my daughter's husband will never see
anything good again. Thank you Aremu. You have never failed me... except
that one time, but I have forgiven you."
***
2 hours later
Beauty's eyes had produced enough water to fill a glass cup.
"Hello Winter, my eyes are getting worse. Are you sure I shouldn't go to the
hospital?"
"Yes, I am at the airport already, I am taking the next flight to Lagos. Just
stay where you are. What is happening to your eyes is not what the hospital
can solve, I can tell you the wife has gone diabolical for your case ooo... but
don't worry, where someone's juju ends, that's where another person's own
starts from... I will show her you have a killer friend."
"Thank you Winter, I am waiting... I can't see clearly again."
34
"Don't worry your head over nothing. You see that eye, it will clear."
"Thank you!"
"About to board...see you soon!" Winter said from the Abuja Airport. She
had told her new husband that she had to see a close friend who was dying.
Unknown to him, Winter was already plotting his death.
***
"This is very terrible!" Winter said on seeing Beauty. "Your eyes are like
they are going to pop out soon. With this, I think we really need to get to
the hospital."
Winter noticed a rumpled sheet of paper on the floor, she instantly guessed
it was the cheque. She picked it up in haste.
"We might need this!" Winter said in her defense when she realized Beauty
saw her. "We don't know what this eye thing might graduate into, let us
have this for medical bills.”
Beauty nodded.
"I swear if Freeman and his wife have a hand in this, they will pay." Beauty
said out loud.

It was two weeks since the breakup and it was two weeks away from Beauty.
Freeman looked out the window as he watched Pamilerin playing with their
daughters. His second daughter who was very outspoken smiled and he saw
her beautiful dimple just like his.. And he couldn't help but smile. The smile
was a smile of gratitude. He was grateful for what he had. He felt free
indeed. He didn't have to hide his phone every now and then. He didn't
have to stay in the car receiving Beauty's call. He had blocked Beauty's
number from calling him. He couldn't deny the fact, he enjoyed every bit of
the time he spent with Beauty, but the time to move on was now. It was
worth it while it lasted. His family was what mattered most. Thinking
about Beauty, he was happy she had cashed out a week after he gave her the
cheque. He guessed it took her the first week to come to terms with the
reality of their breakup. She must have come out of the shock and good
reasoning made her go cash out.
****
Beauty's eyesight had gone from bad to worse. The doctors had used all
kinds of antibiotics and even got an optician involved, but Beauty was
beginning to see things in a very blurry state.
"Winter, is this the way I will lose my sight?" Beauty cried on her friend‟s
shoulder at the hospital.
"I thought the Doctors would be able to prevent you from getting blind, but
despite spending over a million on your treatment, things are only getting
worse... I feel like a total failure. I couldn't help my best friend in the
world." Winter said.
36
"Help me Winter, Help me, I can‟t lose my sight... I never knew she was this
wicked."
"You should be grateful she didn't kill you!" Winter replied.
"Why is this life so unfair? Everyone keeps deserting me. I can tell you will
be leaving me soon. I see how your husband has been calling without end.
You won't want your husband going into the arms of another woman
because of me!"
"I can't desert you Beauty and besides my husband cannot go into the arms
of another woman, I have him tied where I want him to be."
"Tied as in tied?"
"Yes... Tied as in Tied! You should have allowed us to tie Freeman."
"Please, can you not mention his name again. I don't want to have anything
to do with him and his wife again!"
"I don't get... Are you afraid of them? Are you going to let them off the hook
so easily. The witch wife is responsible for your eye problem."
"What do you want me to do? If I try contacting them again, the woman
may kill me totally. Just help me find a solution to my eye problem."
"Babe, we can't let them go like that. That woman, she will pay with her life
and that husband she doesn't want you to have, Babe you are getting him
and this eye problem, he will take you abroad and fix it for you. Even if
means him buying you a new set of eyes." Winter declared.
37
"Winter, they don't buy eyes!" Beauty said laughing. Winter succeeded in
making her smile.
"They do... I watch it in movies..." Winter replied laughing.
"This is real life!" Beauty replied "Thank you, Winter...Thank you for being
the only family I have!"
"And you have been an amazing "friesister" to me," Winter said.
"Friesister? What's that? That's a new one" Beauty asked. Winter was
always coming up with something new.
"Just coined it! Since there is a word "Frenemy" I thought of what describes
Us best.
"I am grateful you are not a frenemy to me, thank you for being a fresister
to me,” Beauty said hugging Winter tight.
"Yes I am your fresister and I will do anything to pay that woman back in
her own coin and even give her more."

Winter and Beauty alighted in front of Baba Shagba‟s place far away in
Ogun State. Winter had convinced Beauty into going diabolical about her
eyes and fighting Freeman‟s wife.
“Are we there?” Beauty asked. The smell of wherever they were was very
offensive. It also had this aura of darkness around. Though she couldn‟t see
clearly, her body was repelling the place.
“Yes, we are!” Winter replied heartily.
“I don‟t think I want to go on with this!“ Beauty said refraining from

moving further.
“That‟s fear and intimidation speaking my dear, and as your friend, I am

here to help you overcome whatever it is that wants to stop you from your
victory. I don‟t give up you know?” Winter said pulling Beauty into the
unknown world.
Baba Shagba saw Winter approaching with the girl she had spoken to him
about.
Winter was one of his best clients, she was a grateful client. She spared
nothing when it came to money. She paid for charms sometimes in
Millions. He was happy she had brought another big case before him. It was
another time to be seriously rewarded financially.
“Welcome ooo, Welcome ooo, Winter!” Baba Shagba hailed.
39
“Baba, Good morning,” Winter hailed back

“Take off your shoes!” She said to Beauty.
Beauty obeyed as they stepped into a room. Beauty began to feel

claustrophobic. Though she couldn‟t see clearly, she could tell the room was
a small room loaded with so many things.
“Welcome our friend!” Baba Shagba said to Beauty.

“Is he talking to me?” Beauty asked.
“Yes!” Winter replied.
“Ok... thank you Sir!”
“Why would she do this to you?” Baba Shagba asked.
“Who?” Beauty asked.
“Freeman‟s wife” Winter quickly said winking at Baba Shagba.

The wink was a deep conversation between Baba Shagba and Winter.
Winter was reminding him to stick to their plan.
When Winter called Baba Shagba the night before, the conversation they
had was;
**
“Winter, I have made the enquiries, it is not the wife that made your friend
blind. It was the wife‟s mother!”
“Oh!”
“Yes, and she made use of a very powerful herbalist. My advice is you tell
your friend to go beg the wife and after that ask the wife to speak to her
mother on her behalf.”
40
“Ha! Baba ... Never! That‟s not the plan I have ooo, I want my friend to
believe the wife is the enemy so that she can kill the wife. Afterwards, I will
snatch the man from her. But if her herbalist is too powerful for you, I will
call someone else.”
“No, that‟s not what I meant, I was just trying to warn you ahead of time.
The herbalist would not back down without a fight. You and I may escape
the fight but your friend will be targeted fiercely. She may eventually lose
her life.”
“If that happens, No problem.”
***
It was this conversation Winter was reminding the herbalist of.
“Yes, the wife!” The herbalist agreed with Winter.
“So can you help me regain my sight!” Beauty said.
“And kill the wife” Winter added.
“Yes, as long as the Ingredients are available.”
“Baba Shagba, you know how you do it for me. Tell me the equivalent in
cash so you can buy everything for me. “
“N1.2 million, because we will be buying a female cow who will represent
the wife. It is the cow we will bury alive after we have invoked her spirit into
the cow. This and other things will be used for the ritual.” The herbalist
said.
41
“And you are so sure I will recover my sight back?” Beauty asked, “Sir, that
is what matters to me the most!”
“Yes, and the woman will die!” The herbalist confirmed.
“Sir! I am not doing this to kill the woman. I am doing this majorly to
regain my sight!” Beauty screamed.
The herbalist looked at Winter, winking at her... He stood up and walked

into his inner chambers.
Winter followed him.

“Winter, where are you going?”
“To beg him!” Winter said with irritation in her voice.
***
“Winter, we cannot do anything unless the determination to kill the wife is
coming from her. She is the one that was hurt, not you. Convince her to be
in agreement with us.”
Winter thought for some time before deciding on what to do.
She walked out back to where Beauty was and said, “Stand up, we are
leaving!”
“We are leaving?”
“Yes, since you are not keen on protecting yourself, it‟s better I leave you
the way you are.”
42
“Protecting myself? How does killing someone protect me?”
“Babe, the best approach to defense is attack. Kill her before she kills you.
Once you gain your sight back and somehow she stumbles on you, don‟t you
think she will want you blinded again or even dead?”
“Dead.” Beauty agreed
“So, are you ready to kill her before she kills you?” Winter asked.
Beauty swallowed hard.

As Inspired by the HOLY ONE.
"Teach me how to use it sir," Beauty said.

Winter had called back the herbalist into the room after she had convinced
Beauty into agreeing to kill Freeman's wife.
After getting her consent, the herbalist handed over a bar soap to Beauty
telling her that was what she needed to get her sight back.
"Tell me how to use it sir. I will use it religiously." Beauty repeated.
"You will use it on your eyes, three times daily. You must also use it to take
your bath daily."
"Ok, thank you sir. How long will I use it before my sight will be
recovered?"
"21 days"
"21 days? That long?"
"Long? That is not long ooo, compared to the damage that has been done."
The herbalist answered.
"Yes, Beauty, 21 days is just around the corner. Soon your eyes will back to
normal."
44
"Also you must stay indoors for the 21 days, no going out or letting the sun
touch your skin. It is an abomination."
"Ha! Even the early morning Vitamin D I receive from my bedside

window?"
"Yes. No sun, whether Vitamin K or Vitamin R" The herbalist said winking
at Winter, who shared a knowing smile with him.
"Ok, Baba. Thank you, we will check back in 21 days." Winter said.
"What about the money for the ritual to terminate the woman? Should I be
expecting it in my account as usual?" The herbalist asked in a rush.
"Yes, we will transfer the N1.2 million to you as soon as we get home, or
Beauty should we do it right away?"
"Anyone is fine!" Beauty replied.
"It's better we do it now, who knows what the woman might have on her
sleeves a few minutes from now," Winter said as she reached out for
Beauty's phone.
Winter reached out for Beauty's thumb as Beauty had locked her phone and
bank apps with her fingerprint.
Winter transferred the sum of N2.2 million into her account instead.
45
"I have transferred the N1.2 million to you sir, have you received the alert?."
Winter asked.
"My phone is inside the room, I will check it later. I trust you." The
herbalist said smiling.
"Let's be on our way" Winter said to Beauty as she helped her from the floor
where they were seated.
"Thank you Sir!"
"Thank the gods who are about to answer your prayers." Baba Shagba
replied with a mischievous smile which he shared with Winter.

Pamilerin heard her phone ringing loudly in her subconscious. She was
taking her afternoon nap before the kids returned from school. She roused
herself from sleep and reached for her phone. On looking at the phone
screen, sleep disappeared from her face. It was "Dearest Mum". That was
Pamilerin's guardian calling her.
"Good Afternoon Mummy!"
"Pamilerin, my daughter. How are you?"
"I am fine mummy, how are you too?"
"Fine...Very fine. But how is your husband?"
46
Pamilerin's heart sank! How did she find out about her husband's
infidelity? Or was she just asking about him plainly?
"He is fine ma!" Pamilerin said intending to deny the knowledge of her
husband cheating if she brought it up.
"Pamilerin!" Dearest Mum called Pamilerin intentionally.
"Yes mum," Pamilerin answered gathering all the self-control she had.
"I don't know what is wrong, but for some days my heart has been with you,
so this morning as I was about to give money to my church for the altar
beautification project that is ongoing, my heart went straight to you. The
church needs about 5 million Naira. I only have 3.8 million Naira at my
disposal, I wanted to call your sister to pay up the balance, but my mind
kept going to you. Pamilerin, I want you to join me in sowing towards the
beautification of the church altar. Can you raise 1.2 million Naira for God?"
Dearest Mum said to Pamilerin.
Pamilerin heaved a deep sigh of relief.
"Oh! Erm...Erm..." Pamilerin said as she tried to gather her thoughts.
"N1.2 million Naira is a large amount !" Pamilerin thought.

"Knock! Knock!" Remi knocked on Pamilerin's door.
"Mummy, Daddy is back!" Remi said.
Pamilerin was mildly surprised to hear Freeman was back home by 2 pm.
She was getting ready to go pick up the girls from school.
Earlier, she had concluded with Dearest Mum, that she was going to
support with the 1.2 million for the altar beautification.
She planned to get the money from her husband. She wanted to milk him,
she knew Freeman was still in the sober period and would give her anything
she asked out of guilty conscience. She was planning to silently and
stylishly blackmail him into paying for the altar beautification.
"Didn't he pay the girl off with 2 million Naira, yet he has never given me
that much as a gift. He will be the one to pay for the beautification. Maybe
that might even make God forgive him" Pamilerin had said to herself after
she ended the call with Dearest mum.
***
"I don't have that kind of money to throw around!" Freeman said during
dinner.
"You call giving the house of God money to throw around, but yet you could
give your mistress 2 million Naira as a farewell gift. Shows the kind of heart
you have." Pamilerin said. After which, she stood up abruptly from dinner.
48
Freeman held her hand sharply, "I am sorry, I don't have up to 1.2 million,
I will give you Six hundred thousand Naira. ( 600k)"
"I will tell mum that's what you can afford," Pamilerin replied.
"Babe, you want to paint me bad before Mummy. I am really low on cash,
like you just said, I gave Beauty 2 million and that was for our peace. I have
some money tied down in some investments. I can't afford to throw 1.2
million away."
"Throw 1.2 million away? You are saying it again.....No problem...if that is
how you see it."
Pamilerin walked away. He had pissed her off further. He could give his
mistress 2 million Naira but he wanted to give her six hundred thousand
Naira.
She was going to get back at Freeman.
She picked up her phone to make the call, but a voice restrained her.
"Pamilerin, you know you have the 1.2 million Naira, why are you making a
big deal out of this issue? Your Dearest Mum could have asked any of her
rich daughters for the money but she asked you to give the money. Don't
you think there is more to this? Why don't you take Freeman's six hundred
thousand and balance it up from your personal money." The inner police in
her chastised her.
49
"No, I want him to look bad before Dearest mum." Pamilerin thought
madly.
"Hello Pamilerin," Dearest Mum said the moment she picked up.
"Yes mum, I have spoken to Freeman about the altar beautification and he
says we can only afford half of the money."
"Really? Okay no problem. Guess I have to call one of your sisters. You
know I won't have bothered you, if not that your name was strongly
impressed on my heart... but if it is a bother, you don't have to give the six
hundred. I will just ask one of the girls to join me." Pamilerin could hear a
bit of disappointment and anger in her Dearest Mum's voice, so she knew
she had to exonerate herself.
"Mum, actually I would have love to give all, but Freeman has been having
issues with his finance, I just hope he is not seeing another woman who is
squandering his money," Pamilerin said before she realized her blunder.
"You are having problems with your marriage?" Dearest Mum asked. Her
voice shifted from anger to concern.
"Not really, just overthinking things," Pamilerin said trying to immediately

save this situation.
"The more reason you should partner with God by beautifying His Altar.
When you beautify God's home, He will beautify your home. Earlier I was
angry and I was not going to collect the six hundred thousand, but I am no
longer angry. I will send you the church account, pay the money in there
and see how God will sort out your marriage."
50
"Thank you for your understanding Mama Bear!" Pamilerin said laughing.
"You are most welcome!" Dearest Mum said "My love to your husband and
my grandchildren. I hope you hear from your mother from time to time?."
"Yes, I do."
"My love to her always. I hope you have not given up on her as regards her
faith."
"No ma, I am still very much on her case."
"Good! Very Good! Alright, talk to you some other time!"
"Thank you ma, my love to Daddy."
**
Five minutes later, Dearest Mum forwarded the church account details to
Pamilerin who in turn forwarded it to Freeman.
Freeman immediately transferred six hundred thousand Naira to the

church account. He forwarded the receipt to Pamilerin.
Pamilerin received the receipt and that got her more infuriated. She was
going to show Freeman hell. She thought he would actually send the N1.2
million but he had made up his mind. His Dirty Mind!
***
51
Beauty had used the soap on her eyes as instructed and she was going
through hell. Whatever the soap was made from must be something from
pepper.
"Oh my God! Winter, I think I am going to run mad!"
"Sorry, the soap is washing off whatever impurity is in there. Don't worry, I
am here with you. I won't sleep if you don't sleep, I won't eat if you don't
eat. I don't mind losing the new husband I have. You are the only friend and
sister I have. I am with you babe," Winter said comfortingly.
Beauty kept shedding tears uncontrollably.
"Now, for the first time...I really want to kill her. How soon will she die?"
Beauty said in pain.
"I can't say, I will call the herbalist in the morning."
"No... Call him now!" Beauty said raising her voice.
Winter knew it would be unwise to call the herbalist without sending him
the money for the rituals.
Winter quickly brought her phone and transferred the 1.2 million Naira to
the herbalist's account leaving the extra one million in her account.
The herbalist called back immediately.
52
"Hello Baba...I was about to call you. Thank you for today. Baba ...my friend
wants to know when the woman will die."
"In three days. Winter, your friend has done the needful, she has offered a
big sacrifice, she definitely must see big results. In three days, you will hear
of her demise."
"Ok, Baba...Thank you so much."
Winter ended the call.
"Good news; she dies in 3 days."

Pamilerin found herself in a very big pit that looked like the ground where a
lot of sand had been dug out of from. She looked up and saw how far away
from the ground she was. She was more than 6 feet under the ground.
Suddenly, she saw a big cow charging towards her with big horns.
Pamilerin looked around for an escape route but she found none.
From a distance, she saw two figures that looked like men working on the
sand that formed the wall of the large pit. Pamilerin ran fast towards them
shouting for help. The cow was still in hot pursuit.
Pamilerin was able to get to the men in time. On getting to them, she saw
what they were up to. They were carving stairs out of the sand that formed
the wall of the pit. Pamilerin started shouting, “Thank God...Thank you sirs
for creating an escape route out of here."
The two men emphasized to her, they were making the stairs for her so she
could get out of the pit.
Pamilerin jumped on the first level of the stairs, continued to the second,
third, fourth, fifth, and sixth, but on getting to the sixth she found no more
stairs.
“Where are the rest?” Pamilerin asked them.
Looking at the distance left, she calculated that she needed another six
stairs to get back on land.
54
“You only commissioned us to make six stairs out of the pit.” One of the
men answered.
At that point, the cow had come really close and was using his horns to
strike her legs. The cow was launching against Pamilerin so hard she was
causing bruises on her leg.
"Please help me..." Pamilerin cried out to the two men standing by her.
"We are sorry, we can only work with what we have been provided, and you
only provided us with what can create six stairs," One of the men said
soberly. They had a look of pity and concern on their faces.
Pamilerin knew if the two men didn't create the remaining six stairs, in no
time the cow will pull her down with her horns and stab her to death with
it.
***
Pamilerin woke up sharply from the dream. She knew she had a dream
about the number 6 but it seemed like someone had cleared her memory.
Pamilerin went back to sleep.
***
Baba Shagba gave a look of surprise at the result of his work. The arrow of
death he fired at the woman went to her leg instead.
"The gods forbid it... I refuse to work and not see the results I desire. I have
not slept in the last three days... The gods that back me up don't desert
me... I don't fail...Don't let failure be heard of me...Today ought to be the
55
end of the woman. What is happening?" Baba Shagba said. The gods were
silent as usual, but he expected to see what happened on his charmed
mirror. However, it was blank.
"Who is she? Is she from the marine kingdom or from the tree or is she a
witch, or is it the herbalist backing her mother that is stopping my work...
Never... 1.2 million Naira is not small money. I can't refund it, so this
woman you must die ooo..." Baba Shagba said with so much intensity as to
the seriousness of the issue.

Beauty didn't sleep that night, though sleep had been far from her ever
since her eye problem started , but that night was different, it was already
three days since the herbalist said Pamilerin would die. She couldn't wait
for Winter to wake up and call the herbalist for the good news of her death.
"God, please let her die. She is a wicked human being. Judge it, I was
satisfied being the woman outside. I never even tried to hurt her, but she
heard about me and in a flash, she made me blind...Is that fair? At least in
the Bible days, people had more than one wife, David had several wives and
you still loved him," Beauty said thinking about the few things she
remembered about the Bible.
"But what was the end of David?" A voice questioned her in response.
Beauty didn't give a response, she knew the end of David wasn't as beautiful
as it should have been because of his polygamy.
Beauty laid back on her side on the bed where Winter laid as well.
56
"If I am not grateful for anything, I am grateful to have Winter," Beauty said
looking for Winter's hand. She found it and held on to it.
"Thank you Winter," she whispered not wanting to wake her up.
If only she knew that Winter wasn't asleep. Winter had been researching
Freeman for the past three nights. She had been stalking him on his social
media pages, checking the locations he checked in. She had to meet him,
somehow.
***
Pamilerin woke up to get the children ready for school. With sleepy eyes,
she walked towards the bathroom, and the moment she walked in, she
slipped and twisted her ankle.
"My leg!" Pamilerin screamed.

"Babe!" Freeman jumped from the bed. He heard Pamilerin's scream from
his deep sleep.
He rushed into the bathroom on seeing her on the floor.
"My leg! Freeman ...my leg hurts...my ankle!" Pamilerin said loudly.
The door to the room opened and the kids rushed in. Remi stood by the
door peeping to see what happened to her boss. She was not permitted to
enter their matrimonial room unless she was asked to.
"Mummy...sorry..." Juanita said.
"Daddy, let's lift her,"Venita offered.
Freeman followed his daughter's advice and lifted Pamilerin from the
ground.
He successfully laid her on the bed.
"Remi, get me one of those balms" Freeman called out to Remi.
"Ok sir..." Remi ran towards the living room. The balm was in one of the
cupboards.
58
"Baby...sorry...Who left the tap running?" Freeman said looking at the pool
of water on the floor of the bathroom.
"I don't know," Pamilerin replied while writhing in pain.
Remi returned with the balm.
"Come in..." Freeman said at the sound of her knock.
Freeman spent the next ten minutes massaging Pamilerin's ankle.

Pamilerin wailed like a bereaved woman because the pain was unbearable.
The girls couldn't go to school that morning as everything had been

disrupted. However, Freeman had a 10am appointment he could not
reschedule.
His secretary had told him a new investor was looking to invest in their
business. He was supposed to meet him at a lounge.
"I will be back before you know it. If the pain becomes unbearable we must
go to the hospital," Freeman said to Pamilerin before leaving the house.
***
Pamilerin needed to go to the restroom but it was impossible. She laid her
right foot on the floor and what followed was a strong internal gruesome
pain that went straight to her brain. The pain felt like she was going to shut
down if she attempted to go further. She sat back in her bed. At that point,
she had a flash of something hitting her leg in the dream, but the flash of
the dream was not long enough for her to make sense out of it.
59
"It's just a sprain, nothing is wrong with my leg, it's not an attack.
Pamilerin, don't spiritualize this fall, it was just an accident, not something
from the devil. Don't give the devil too much credit." She charged herself
up.
***
"Where are you going?" Beauty said to Winter. She had been hearing the
movements in the room ever since Winter stood up from the bed. She
couldn't make out what Winter was doing and Winter also made matters
worse by not responding to Beauty's series of questions.
"Is she dead?"
"Have you heard from the herbalist?"
"If she is not dead, have they found why?"
Winter kept mute, there was a reason for that. She wasn't supposed to
speak to anyone except her target.
"I know it sounds like I am nagging, but can you at least say something!"
Beauty begged.
"Fine... I get it, you are leaving me. No problem."
Winter walked out of the house. She would remedy the situation later.
***
60
Freeman walked into the posh restaurant the investor had asked to meet
him in. It was one of the most expensive restaurants in town.
**
Winter sat in the VVIP LOUNGE sipping her white wine. She had not
spoken a word to anyone that day. She even wrote her drink preference to
the waitress.
Freeman walked around looking for any man who was sitting alone.
Winter and Freeman's eyes met as he looked around for his investor.
Winter jumped to her feet after few minutes.
"Hey, Hello...." Winter said walking towards him. It was time to play the
game she was so good at.
"Hi... "Freeman answered cautiously with a raised eyebrow. He wondered if

this was the investor he was meeting.
"Well, if she is my investor, she definitely must have a lot of money, judging
by her expensively looking outfit." Freeman thought.
"Are you the one I am meeting?" Freeman asked.
"Not sure, but you have this striking look I can't place. Have we met
before?" Winter said. Winter knew the "Have we met before" line was cliché
but it always worked for her.
61
"Erm...not sure," Freeman replied disappointed the cash bag in front of him
was not the investor.
Freeman tilted his head to the side to look around once more . The investor
had contacted him through email, so he had no phone number to call.
"Oh my God, the tilting of your head, just brought this deja vu feeling...like
I have seen you do this before," Winter said laughing.
"Oh really?" Freeman replied smiling.
Winter stood looking at him with her mouth wide open. Freeman was a bit
embarrassed at the way she was looking at him.
"What ma'am?"
"If I say this, I hope you won't say I am crazy?"
"You don't look crazy, so the thought won't cross my mind no matter what
you say to me!" Freeman said laughing.
"I see you in my dreams!" Winter said with the most serious look Freeman
had ever seen on a woman.
Freeman was lost for words, “What?” he asked stunned.
"I see you in my dreams!" Winter repeated.

"What do you mean? How can you see me in your dreams since we have
never met?"Freeman asked after catching his breath.
"Yes, as embarrassing it may sound, I see you in my dreams. I mean like in

the past two months, I have seen you and I seated in an office discussing.
Sometimes, it would look like we are in a board meeting. and I think in one
of the dreams I saw myself giving you money," Winter said in a rush. She
needed him wrapped around her finger.
"Money...I like the sound of that!" Freeman joked.
"Seriously, but why would I have that kind of dream?" Winter asked.
"Well, maybe it could be a pointer for you to invest in my company. My

manners, I am Freeman and I run an ICT company," Freeman was saying.
"Do you mind if we sit, my heels are killing me," Winter said laughing.
"Sure..." Freeman said as he looked around hoping to see if there was

anyone that looked like his potential investor.
"You came here to meet your girlfriend... How can she stand a very
handsome man like you up?" Winter teased
"Oh no... I am married."
63
"Ok…and you don't have a girlfriend?" Winter asked teasing.
"I... used..." Freeman was about saying he used to, but he stopped himself.
"I don't have a girlfriend. I am married with three beautiful daughters," he

said instead.
"Touche! You have it all going for you. I guess not everyone can be as lucky
and happy as you are...Lucky you!"
"You are married...so you should be happy," Freeman said referring to her
wedding ring. Although he didn't like the path the conversation was
heading, he found himself enjoying the conversation he was having with the
woman.
Winter knew this was the time to withdraw from him. She had lured him
into her, she could bet he was finding her interesting already. This was the
time to make him yearn for more.
"Can we talk about business? We are already delving into my personal life
and that they say is not healthy for business. Isn't that true?" Winter said in
a chic manner.
"Yes...I am sorry for drifting too."
"So tell me what you are really into, and how much you want me to invest. I
am not bragging but I have got a lot of money. I want to make good use of
my husband's money."
64
Freeman gave a soft side smile. Today was a good day for him. He was
hoping he would meet the initial investor also. That would be a double
victory for him. He could recognize money when he saw it. The woman
sitting across him at the lounge was MONEY. He did a quick evaluation.
Her bag was a designer bag that would cost nothing less than a million
naira.
"It is a limited edition," Winter said.
"Huh?" Freeman stuttered.
"I saw you staring at my bag, I bought it in London for 6000 pounds.
Limited edition. I have been throwing money away recently, so if your
business will be a good place to put in money, I am game..." Winter said.
"It sure is... My company is into..." Freeman gave his usual 3 minutes
speech about the company.
***
Beauty paced around in the living room. Winter had put her number on
speed dial on her phone, but she had been calling her for over 3 hours
without any response
"Where on earth is she? Did Freeman's wife find out about Winter? Is
Winter Dead? Or Has winter left me to die in this state? Maybe she got tired
of me."
Beauty was beginning to learn how to move around the house in her blind
state. She avoided the windows for fear of the sun. The herbalist had told
her to avoid the sun for 21 days.
65
Her eyes!
It seemed like it was getting worse as she was seeing darkness rather than
any appearance of light as she had hoped.
***
Pamilerin wondered why Freeman was taking forever and unlike him, he
wasn't picking her calls. Even when he was in a meeting, he would pick up
for her to hear the conversation going on in the room.
Her legs were burning. It felt like her legs had been placed on hot coals.
She needed him at that moment.
***
Freeman couldn't believe he sat with this beautiful stranger for three hours
discussing. They spoke about business, politics, travelling and Football.
She was the first woman who spoke about football with so much passion."
"I need to be on my way!" Freeman eventually said “I wish I didn't have to

go, but my wife had a minor domestic accident."
"Oh really? She slipped?"
"Exactly!"
"Is she hospitalized?"

66
"No, it's not that serious. She should be on her feet by now. I just have to be
home early. I promised her I would be back early."
"Lucky her!"
"Your husband is lucky to have you too, you are easy to talk with!"
"He is dead!" Winter said maintaining a strong intense look with him.
"Oh!" Freeman was taken aback. "Sorry about that!"
"I am healing... so thank you!"
There was a brief moment of silence.
"I hope I didn't end a good time with you on a bad note?" Winter asked.
"No...I am ... sorry once again."
"Thank you, but I think luck is shining my way, my old friend who is also a
widower is looking my way and I think we may start something soon,"
Winter announced.
Winter almost punched herself. She was good at this game.
67
"Rule 221 of seducing a married man...Don't present yourself as an

available girl, men love to fight for their love interest. They like to think
that they snatched her from someone else." Winter reminded herself.
"Now, my day is once again bright." Freeman said “I will prepare the
proposal and send it to your mail.”
"Alright...I will be expecting," Winter responded.
"Thank you!"
Freeman stood up feeling accomplished. Immediately, his phone beeped. It

was an email that read; "Can we reschedule, stuck in traffic."
Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish" Freeman muttered under his breath.
Winter smiled as she watched him go. She had sent the mail.
"Winter, give it to Freeman cold, freeze him to death, and take all he has,"
Winter said to herself as she took a final sip of her white wine.

"Where are you coming From?" Pamilerin's words sounded like an attack.
Freeman took a pause wondering why the outburst.
"You were with her right? I twisted my leg and you spent over three hours
with her... Freeman, don't take me for a fool. I know you are not over her
yet, but at least you should still pretend to show a little compassion. You
know how you left me in this house, yet you sat frolicking with her in some
restaurant," Pamilerin said in tears.
"Pamilerin, who are we talking about here? Beauty? I haven't seen her in
weeks, you know I have paid her off."
"So where were you?"
"I went for a business meeting... Pamilerin... don't get me on the edge, you
know how I become when someone pushes me to the edge. I was coming
home with the good news of a big financial shift coming our way and here
you are nagging me about some girl who is in my past."
"What good news?"
"I just met this money bag who is interested in investing in our company. I
met her at one of the posh restaurants. Wait! How did you know I was at a
restaurant?" Freeman looked at Pamilerin suspiciously.
69
"I called your Secretary... I was told you were going to meet with an investor
at a restaurant."
"And you assumed I was going to meet Beauty... Jealous woman" Freeman
teased.
Freeman moved closer, tickling her leg. He knew Pamilerin's weakpoint

was tickling. She was ticklish to a fault.
"Don't....!" Pamilerin screamed instead of laughing.
"What's wrong? The leg still hurts?" Freeman asked.
"Yes, at this point, I can't even describe the pain…sometimes it hurts,

sometimes it burns me so hotly, a few minutes ago it felt like there was no
blood in my legs."
"Then, we need to get to the hospital.”
***
"What do you mean you don't know how she escaped death? The husband
told me she only slipped. Baba Shagba if you have lost your touch, return
the 1.2 million and let me find someone stronger."
"Winter, have I ever failed you?"
"There is always a first time," Winter said angrily.
70
"There will never be a first time, I will see to her end." Baba Shagba said.
Winter angrily dropped the call.
***
Ajoke saw the light she used in representing Pamilerin in her house,
suddenly go off, despite the oil in the base of the lamp.
"The gods forbid!" Ajoke rose sharply. On seeing the lamp that had gone
off, she ran out of the house.
***
Dearest Mum had a nudging to call Pamilerin but she waved it aside. She
didn't want to call her so Pamilerin doesn't get the idea she was forcing her
to complete the money for the altar beautification.
"I don't want her thinking I am calling her to beg her for her money. My
daughter has completed the money," Dearest Mum said to herself.
***
"Why did you come back?" Beauty said the moment Winter walked in.
Beauty had laid on the floor in tears. She had been blank on what to do. She
was helpless. She couldn't even go out for fear of the sun.
"I don't understand your question!" Winter replied.
"I thought you were gone and you didn't want to say goodbye this
morning."
71
"I was sad and broken this morning, that's why I couldn't speak with you. I
didn't want you hearing my voice. I was sobbing."
"Why?"
"The woman is not dead. The herbalist sent me a message on waking up

that she has strong evil powers. He told me at this point, your life is at risk."
Winter said convincingly.
Beauty felt like a wall crashed on her.
"She is noootttt dead? That means I will be dead soon. It doesn't matter
anymore. Life means nothing to me anymore. Guess I am just extra in this
world. I am not much of a big deal," Beauty said crying. Her voice broke
with every word that came out of her mouth.
"No...don't say that Beauty. You are important, you are beautiful. Your
existence is intentional... You are not going to give up my friend... You will
not die and you will recover your sight," Winter said with tears pouring out
of her eyes. She intentionally made her tears drop on Beauty's arm.
"Winter, you don't have to cry," Beauty said though she was crying bitterly.
"Beauty, I have spoken to the herbalist, you will stay with him for maximum
protection. If the witch sends the spirit of death, if you are here, there is
nothing you and I can do to stop it, but if you are with him, you will be
protected."
"You mean...I will be living with the herbalist?"
72
"Temporarily! Till the woman dies."
"That place stinks!" Beauty said on remembering the last time they were
there.
"You shouldn't stay more than 2 weeks. What do you say?" Winter asked
eyeing her maliciously. She wanted her out of the way. Though she had not
discussed her new plan with the herbalist, she wanted the herbalist to keep
her with him till she ended her mission.
"Beauty...What do you say?"

“Lara!”
“Lara!”
Baba Shagba called out to his last wife. He knew he dare not call any of his
senior wives. His senior wives had lost respect for him, because of the lack
of money to care for them. The only thing keeping them with him is the
oath all of them entered when he married them.
His last wife, Omolara who was just 18 years old entered his trap when she
came looking for a charm to tie down her boyfriend 2 years earlier at 16
years old. Prior to that, she had come for exam charms which he did for
her, but he was surprised when she came back wanting to tie down her
boyfriend. Baba Shagba had been pissed at her, so he decided to punish her
by charming her into marrying him. He had seen how full of virtue she was.
He gave her a portion to drink. Stupidly, she drank it and started loving
him instead.
“Yes Baba...” Lara replied.
“We are having a visitor tonight, she will be sleeping in your room for two
weeks.”
“Ok Baba” Lara said obediently.
74
“Never!” Chigozie shouted from her room. Chigozie was the fourth wife. She
was the wife before Lara. Chigozie married Baba Shagba willingly so she
wasn‟t charmed like the three other wives. She and the first wife were the
ones free from Baba Shagba‟s love charm.
“You want to bring another woman in here.. Never! Tufiakwa! I will be the
one to kill her!”
“I am not bringing a new wife Chichi... She is a blind woman I want to

treat.”
“You? Treat a blind woman? Since when did you start treating blind
women. Is it not only love portion you are good at?” Chigozie mocked him.
“Chichi... I don‟t have time for this. Winter is already bringing her.”
“Winter! Oh, I see! That woman abi? So she has decided to bring you a new
wife?” Chichi said.
“Chichi, don‟t be a joy spoiler, come ooon,” He pulled her away from Lara
and two of his wives that had joined the conversation.
“Chichi, 1.2 million Naira is at stake here. I promise I will give you one
hundred thousand Naira if you cooperate with me. I promise you I am not
marrying her. It is a long story.”
“I am not going anywhere, so I have all the time to listen to the long story.”
Chigozie insisted.
“Ok... Chichi” Baba Shagba explained everything.

75
***
Beauty couldn‟t believe she had agreed to stay with a strange herbalist for a
while, but as it was, Winter was the only person she had and she had no
choice but to follow her advice.
***
Pamilerin laid on the bed thinking about how the day went. She had gone
for an X-ray and to her greatest surprise, there was nothing wrong with the
leg. The doctor advised her to stay indoors for some days and be off her
feet. He told her the pain she was feeling could just be a traumatic pain.
She watched her husband sleeping calmly like a baby. She thought about
her outburst earlier. That was not her person.
“Pamilerin, you need to calm down.“ She advised herself.
Her phone rang again. Her mother had been calling all afternoon but she
was not in the mood for any of her dramas.
On a second thought, Pamilerin knew if she didn‟t pick up the call, her
mother would call all night.
“Hello, Maami”
“Ha! Pamilerin... What is it? You want to kill me?”
“Mummy, I am sorry... I was busy all day.”
76
“Busy all day? Where are you?”
“At home... Where else do you expect me to be at this time of the night?”
“You mean you are fine? You are not sick? You don‟t have headache?” Ajoke
asked.
“Why are....you asking me all that?”
“Nothing ooo, I am just concerned!”
Pamilerin hung up.
“What is Maami up to? What has she done? Is she trying to attack me? Is
she the cause of my leg pain?” Pamilerin reasoned.
“I need to stop picking her calls before she hurts me,” Pamilerin quickly
blocked her mother from calling her.
“I have had enough trouble for a day,” She dropped her phone by her
bedside table. Her leg was still hurting but the pain relief pills and
injections the doctor had given her had subsided the pain.
“God, I hope to be better by tomorrow.“
***
Winter alighted from the taxi that brought them to Baba Shagba. She held
Beauty‟s hand as they walked towards Baba Shagba‟s compound. Beauty
77
could perceive the awful smell and she sensed the cloud of darkness that
was over the house they were entering. She could hear a voice from behind
telling her…
“This is not the solution... This is the solution”
“Lift your leg, we are about entering the compound.” Winter said. She
couldn‟t wait to dump Beauty with Baba Shagba. She had only two weeks to
execute her plan.
“No!” Beauty froze all of a sudden. “I am not going in there! Take me back
home... it‟s better I die peacefully than die here. The darkness I feel around
here is enough to kill me. Winter take me back home or take me to my
grandmother‟s place.“
Winter felt like slapping her.
“Your grandmother? Someone you haven‟t seen in how many years, who
you deserted after you started making money.”
“Winter, she is still my grandmother, she would accept me and help me.”
Winter was trying so hard to control her anger. If only Beauty could see
how her eyes shone with so much hatred.
“I am not taking you back there. I know what is right for you and HERE... is
where you are going to be for now!”
“Winter, Take me from here now!”

Winter was haunting Freeman‟s dream. It wasn‟t in a sexual way but rather
everything Winter had said to him at the lounge was replaying itself in his
dream. It felt like Winter had recorded those dreams she said she had on
his mind. The dreams were playing back.
Freeman saw himself and Winter having business meetings, he saw her
introducing him to other wealthy investors. He saw them travelling
together to all the countries she had told him she had visited. He saw them
entering different private jets.
Freeman woke up smiling.
“I have hit my money bag. Thank you God for bringing Mrs. Winter into my
life,” he said to himself.

Freeman couldn't wait for the day to break. His heart yearned to call Mrs.
Winter and ask to meet with her again. He could sense that he and Mrs.
Winter would do great things together.
It was 4 am and all he could do was think of why the clock was ticking
slowly.
Pamilerin on the other hand moved in pain in between her sleep, she
wanted to wake up, but the drowsiness wouldn't let her. In between her
sleep, she saw Freeman walking towards their closet. He kept bringing out
and trying out different suits, ties, shirts...
In between her sleep, she kept wondering what he was up to.
"Is Freeman planning to go out even with this pain I am going through?"
Pamilerin thought.
***
Beauty's eyes didn‟t experience sleep all through the night. The mosquitoes
came in their numbers attacking every exposed part of her body. She
couldn't help the tears that flowed on their own accord to the side of her
eyes.
Though she was getting accustomed to the continuous darkness that

clouded her day and night, she didn't think she could bear sharing the room
80
with a pregnant stranger. She had been told she would be sharing the room
with one of the herbalist's wives.
On entering the room, she met the rude shock of knowing that she would be
sleeping on a mattress on the floor when she had a soft comfy six feet by six
mattress in her home. To make matters worse, she would be sharing the
room with a pregnant woman who smells of urine.
"Just two weeks." Beauty encouraged herself.
"But two weeks in this place can actually kill you," the inner voice in her
revolted.
***
Winter had spent the better part of the night, ransacking Beauty's house.
She combed the house for her gold jewelry. She stumbled on the documents
of two properties that Beauty had bought.
Winter got into her car by 6 am and drove to Rennaissance Apartment, it

was one of the expensive ocean view short-let apartments. Winter needed
a place Freeman could meet up with her unnoticed and unhindered.
"One sexual time with him is all I need."
TWO WEEKS LATER.
Pamilerin had become a shadow of herself. That was the fifth Specialist
hospital she had been in the last two weeks. They all had been saying the
same thing, “The leg looks good from the X-ray. The pain will subside."
81
Pamilerin knew the pain was not subsiding, rather the intensity was high.
The pain was not only limited to her ankle anymore, it had taken her whole
leg. The pain had gotten to her waist.
She was seated in front of an orthopedic doctor who was saying the same
thing, but he added, “Madam, can I give you an advice... I think this leg
issue is more than a physical problem. I have a friend who is a traditional
bone therapist. You might want to see him."
"Traditional bone therapist? Like a Native doctor?" Pamilerin asked

wondering if a medical doctor was referring her to a herbalist.
"Yes, they can fix spiritual bone problems, of which I can tell you
categorically that this leg of yours is one of those spiritual cases.”
"I am a Christian sir, I can't go to a native doctor for help," Pamilerin said.
Her voice was weak. Fear gripped her heart at the realization that the leg
pain was a spiritual case.
"Then I am sorry ma, for recommending it to you," The doctor said as he

quickly changed his concerned look to an angry and emotionless look.
***
Ajoke was still angry at Pamilerin. Ade, her neighbor had confirmed to her
that Pamilerin had blocked her line from calling her. Ade had used his
number to call Pamilerin's line and it rang before he quickly dropped the
call. To confirm that she had blocked Ajoke, he had called Pamilerin's line
using Ajoke's line, but the call kept ending on its own.
82
Ajoke became angry. She swore to leave Pamilerin to suffer whatever was
coming to her, as she would wait for her to come begging for her help when
her husband's girlfriend had dealt with her mercilessly.
"A baby chicken who feels her mother is worthless and runs away from
under her mother's wings will know the worth of her mother when the
hawk comes calling," Ajoke resolved in her heart.
***
Winter was prepared for Freeman. Freeman had been playing hard to get
for the past two weeks. They had been having their meetings at the lounge
of the apartment she was staying. She had always offered to give him a
drink at her flat, but he always turned down the offer.
Winter had promised him an initial investment of 500million, which she

told him was part of what she inherited from her late husband.
That day was the day she was meant to sign it off.
Winter heard the sound of the apartment bell.
She knew he was around. She had opened the door halfway. He didn't have
to use the bell. She had told him, she was having a bad period.
15 MINUTES EARLIER
"I am around! Unlike you, you are not here yet! Is everything alright?"
Freeman texted.
83
"Everything is not alright... I don't think we can have our meeting today. I
can't come down" Winter had replied.
"Why? What's wrong?" Freeman replied. Freeman was not going to let the
devil destroy his chance of a lifetime. That was the day of her concluding on
the investment.
"Just having a bad period day."
"Bad period day?"
"Period as in menstrual pain. I wish I could get some pain killers but I can't
even lift myself off the floor where I am laying," Winter texted back while
sipping her champagne. She knew how it was going to end.
"Can I get you some painkillers?" Freeman asked and Winter laughed out
loud. Freeman was following the script line by line.
"Oh! That would be nice of you...I am in Apartment G05. Thanks" Winter

replied.
Winter turned off her data. She knew how it worked. She didn't want to give
him the chance to call and say he couldn‟t come to her apartment.
Winter knew it was time.
She got into one of her crazy night wears that only a castrated man could
resist the temptation of sleeping with her.
84
***
"This is two weeks already, I want to go back home. The eye treatment is
not working and besides, I believe Freeman's wife is no longer chasing me.
Also, my friend Winter has obviously gone back to her husband. At this
point, let me just go home," Beauty said to Baba Shagba.
Beauty had told Lara, her pregnant roommate to help her stand by the
entrance of their room, so she could speak to Baba Shagba on his way out of
his own room. Baba Shagba's room was adjacent to theirs.
"Well, you have few days before your 21 days from the sun will be over, once
it's completed, you are free to go."
"What has the past 18 or so days done to me, my eyes still see darkness.
Whatever you are doing is not working and I am done. I just need my
phone to call someone who can take me out of here."
"Ok...but your phone is not with me. Your friend took it with her."
"No, before she left, she told me she gave it to you and if I needed to call I
should tell you. I have been asking you for the phone and you said I needed
to be off any form of contact and that you would give me the phone when I
am leaving, so why the lie now?" Beauty asked.
"I am not telling you lies. Listen woman, you are still here because your
friend wants you here, the moment she doesn't want you here again, you
can leave," Baba Shagba said angrily leaving Beauty and Lara at the
entrance of their room.
***

Winter left the door halfway open , she wanted him to walk into the room.
She had a great sight for him to behold.
The ringing of her phone interrupted her sex appeal positioning. On looking
at the caller ID, she knew she had to pick up the call. It was BS; short form
of Baba Shagba calling.
"Hello, Baba Shagba...What is it...this is not the time ooo."
"Listen, your fowl wants to get loose."
"Tie her ... Or is she too strong to be tied... I need some days more."
"I should tie her?" Baba Shagba asked for clarity sake.
"Yes, tie her!" Winter said affirmatively before ending the call abruptly.
***
"I should tie her," Baba Shagba said smiling mischievously.
"That's my speciality. It's been a while since a woman loved me and its been
a while since I slept with a new woman." Baba Shagba said laughing with
excitement.
He was about to do what he knew how to do best. He was going to tie

Beauty down with his love charm.
"Lara, Lara! Come here!" He called out to his last wife.

86
"Yes Baba!"
"Go and kill a male and a female chicken for me, kill both and cook it
together. When you are through bring the whole pot to me."

Freeman noticed the door to Mrs. Winter's Apartment was partly opened.
Something in him screamed "CAUTION".
"Hello...Hello, Mrs. Winter," Freeman stood at the door calling out to her.
He rang the apartment bell.
"Mr. Freeman ...please come in...You can wait for me in the living room,"
Winter answered.
She knew that was the trick to make men comfortable. Tell them to wait in
the living room... That would erase fear from them. If you tell them to come
into the bedroom, they would immediately know what you are up to.
"Ok.." Freeman said as he walked into the living room. His initial fear was
taken away.
Freeman walked into the living room. The view was beautiful. It felt like he
was on top of Lagos. The view gave a proud feeling to whoever was looking.
"You like the view?" Winter asked. .
Freeman turned and the view that met his eyes was more beautiful than the
view he had been staring at.
"Cloth doesn't do justice to Mrs. Winter," A voice said within him.

88
Winter's half-naked outfit complimented her stature. Her female curves

were emphasized in the outfit.
"Do you like the view?" Winter asked again with a voice that implied
something else.
"Sure...I mean yes," Freeman looked away from Winter back to the city
view.
"I am sorry for the way I am dressed, it is a bad habit I have. I walk around
naked in the house. I had to wear this because you were coming... I hope
you are not uncomfortable?" Winter asked.
Freeman wanted to scream and beg her to wear something decent as her
body was not a body you could look at and still maintain your sexual sanity.
"Please take a seat," she offered.
Freeman sat on the seat opposite her, which a few minutes later, he
discovered was a wrong move because Winter showed no shame. She had
her legs parted in front of Freeman. Freeman was not a child so he knew
what was happening.
"You are not sick, you just wanted me in here?" Freeman asked.
"You are smart!"
"I am married."
89
"I am married too."
"Now widowed, we don't have the same life if you are comparing us."
"I am not trying to destroy your home, I am only trying to protect myself."
"From?"
"Betrayal...If I have nothing on you, and someday you decide not to give me
my returns on the 500 million investment, won't that be a huge loss... I am
not stupid like that."
"So you think we sleeping with each other will give you some sort of
assurance?"
"Every business person likes a form of assurance."
"Sex isn't a form of assurance," Freeman replied.
"I am not asking for sex, I want marriage," Winter said bluntly.
Freeman couldn't believe his ears.
"It doesn't have to be public, I just want to know that you won't stab me in
the back. My late husband left me assets worth Seventy Million dollars. I
am ready to let us trade with it if I am sure you are not going to walk out on
me someday. Marriage is what binds a man and woman together."
90
"I am legally married...Marrying you will be a criminal offence, I will be

committing bigamy."
"I have my way around, if you are in for this, you don't need to worry your
head, I will have it sorted out. This is Nigeria and some people can break
laws and still escape it."
***
Pamilerin sat in the cab staring at the complimentary card the doctor gave
her.
"God forbid I go to a native doctor...I'd rather die than bow to another god.
If this is my mother's way of making me go diabolical, she has failed."
She needed to talk and share what she was going through with someone,
especially since Freeman had been unavailable in the past two weeks. He
had been going from one meeting to the other.
Dearest Mom!
Pamilerin knew that was the only person she could turn to.
Pamilerin dialed Dearest Mom and the call was dropping by itself.
"No...no...no," Pamilerin shouted all of a sudden. The cab driver looked

back in fear.
"I am sorry."
91
Pamilerin knew the meaning of that call ending on it's own. Dearest Mom
was not in town. Maybe she had gone on holiday to one of her children
living outside the country.
"Maami?" Pamilerin thought of her birth mother instead.
"No, what if she has a hand in my leg problem... No way!"
***
Beauty sat in her room waiting for it to be dark. She still had the fear of
going out under the sun as the herbalist had warned her. . She had begged
her pregnant roommate to tell her when it was dark. She planned to go out
and she knew in her BLIND state, she would find help.
Her pregnant roommate had brought her food, which she refused.
"Where is she?" Beauty could hear Baba Shagba's voice.
She moved close to the wall.
"I heard you refuse to eat my food. You want to die here out of starvation...
Never... I see that you are stubborn. I know how to bring you into
submission."
Beauty heard the familiar locking of the door. She had been abused too
many times, she knew when the demon of rape entered men into raping
her.
92
"You better don't injure yourself..." Beauty heard him say as she groped in
the darkness looking for safety that was absent.

"I love my wife...I can't do that to her."
"I am not asking you to sleep with me, our marriage will be a business
arrangement...It's just an arrangement that will assure me that you won't
betray me...Betrayers are everywhere," Winter said.
Freeman kept quiet, the offer looked innocent and it was a big opportunity
to change levels.
"There won't be any sexual commitment?" Freeman asked.
"No, It's not like you find me attractive. I am just a lonely widow to you."
Winter said.
Freeman swallowed hard. If only Mrs. Winter knew how hard and highly
turned on he was, she won't say such.
"Can I think about it and possibly discuss it with my wife?" Freeman asked.
Winter didn't see that coming... His wife?
"This guy is a loser, can't he keep anything from his wife? No wonder he
told her about Beauty. “I will break that bond between you” Winter
94
thought wickedly but she knew she had to pull out another winning card in
this game.
"Sure, but do you think your wife will see it the way we see it, are you sure
she won't begin to feel insecure? You are very handsome and I think I am
still beautiful,” Winter said hinting something could actually happen
between them.
“Maybe you should hold on as regards telling her. I am not in a rush to

invest. We could start to build trust between us as family friends. I get to
know your family and they get to know me, so that way when you tell her
about the marriage plan, it won't be a big deal... She won't see me as a
threat." Winter said quickly.
"That sounds brilliant. "
"So, when do I meet your family? I am new in town and I have been
wanting to connect with old friends, though I have been skeptical about
that. But meeting your family is a very good one for me."
"Let me inform my wife today, we can host you tomorrow?"
"Perfect!" Winter said.
Freeman stood up.
"I should take my leave."
95
"Thanks for the time and I am sorry for tricking you here, a woman has to
do what she has to do. " Winter walked close to him stretching out her hand
for a handshake.
Freeman fell for it. He stretched his hand for the handshake but Winter
took his hand and placed it on her chest.
"I pledge to be a good business –wife-partner," Winter said as she

deliberately moved his hand over her breast.
Freeman quickly removed his hand as his body felt the immediate jolt of
excitement.
Freeman walked away without saying his goodbye.
***
Beauty wanted to scrape the smell of the herbalist off her body. His body
smell was like acid. Beauty thought the rape events in her life were over but
it had repeated itself again.
Beauty groped around in the darkness looking for anything sharp to kill
herself, instead, she was surrounded by clothes.
She picked one of the clothes and tied it around her neck hoping to
strangulate herself. She started coughing really hard in the process.
Beauty started hearing a lot of noise coming from outside. She could
recognize the loudest voice. It sounded like the voice Lara had told her
belonged to one of the herbalist's wives, Chigozie.
96
"You are a cheap liar...thief...woman wrapper...Useless man...Trouble

finder.”
“Ejighi ihe eji agba na nti agba na imi.( We do not employ what we use in
cleaning the ear to clean the nose.) I thought you said you and her friend
were working together to dupe her, so is sleeping with her part of the deal?
Useless man! I can tell you this one will backfire on you."
Beauty heard those words but she hoped she was dreaming. The shock she
felt and the pain that followed that shock was worse than the pain from the
rape.
"Can you shut up?" Beauty heard Baba Shagba say to her.
"I wasn't planning to sleep with her, but when she insisted on going today, I
called her friend who said I should tie her down till she comes. I tried to tie
her down with a charm but she refused eating the food. The only thing I
could think of doing was what I did. I am not planning to marry her if that's
what you are thinking," Baba Shagba said more quietly in a bid to calm
Chigozie, but Beauty had followed the voice and heard everything.
Beauty hid behind a door. She could tell they couldn't see her.
"Winter!Why?"
Beauty's heart was racing at the realization that Winter was a Frenemy. She
started connecting the dots. Her eyes had become worse after she started
using the soap from the herbalist.
"Why?" was her continuous thought as she found her way back to the room.
97
She told herself she had to get out of that place that night.
***
Pamilerin sat in the living room with the girls waiting for Freeman.
In the past two weeks, Freeman had been calling her less during the day
and he cared less about her leg. He only told her occasionally the leg would
get better.
Freeman walked in looking excited. His eyes shone in excitement...

Pamilerin feigned her smile.
"Welcome dear! Have you won a contract? Your eyes are shining!"
"No, like I told you before I have hit a jackpot. The investor I told you
about!"
"Oh... the woman...What about her?"
"Her late husband left her 70 million dollars and she is ready to invest it in
our company," Freeman announced excitedly with the hope of laying the
foundation of Mrs. Winter's visit to their house the next day.
"Why?" Pamilerin asked on impulse.
"Why?" Freeman repeated.
98
"I meant to say Wow... but I mean how did you meet her and why is she
interested in the company. I hope she is not planning to take over the
company from you," the business-minded, intelligent, and logical
personality of Pamilerin popped up.
"Well, I kind of brought her in. I met her at a lounge where I went for a
meeting and God made it possible for me to have a conversation with her,"
Freeman said as he was trying to defend Mrs. Winter.
"But I thought the last time you told me about her, you said she was an
investor you had a meeting with?" Pamilerin asked as she winced in pain.
"Pamilerin, can you stop this over questioning... I hope you don't have
weird ideas about the woman and I?" Freeman asked.
Pamilerin was quiet, but she couldn't help the tears that flowed.
"Pamilerin, I am not dating her."
"But for the past two weeks, you have been out daily and you never ask me
about my leg. I have been taking 10 painkillers every day," Pamilerin said
crying.
"I am sorry, I am trying to regain the money I lost recently due to my

stupidity, I mean the one I gave to Beauty. Listen, I will invite the woman
over to our house tomorrow, at least if you know her, your mind will be at
rest." Freeman said hoping he played his card well.
Pamilerin looked up at him, “You want to bring her home?" she asked.
99
"Yes, so you can meet her because we will be working closely together pretty
soon but if you don't want to meet her...no problem."
"I want to meet her," Pamilerin said.
She wanted to see who her husband would be working with.
***
Beauty could tell it was midnight already, her pregnant roommate was
already snoring deeply. Beauty rose from the bed where she had been
pretending to be asleep.
"God, if you are real, please get me out of here!"

"Stop there!" Beauty heard the voice of Baba Shagba.
"Where do you think you are going?" Baba Shagba asked.
At that point, Beauty concluded that there really was no God. She had
prayed to God to prove to her He was real, but He just failed her.
"Reverse and get back to your room before I teach you a lesson you will
never forget in your life."
***
Ajoke saw Pamilerin in her dream tied to a tree. Ajoke tried untying her, but
it was becoming complex instead. The rope was getting tighter than her
intention.
Ajoke woke up confused.
"What kind of trouble has Pamilerin gotten herself into? But how come as I
was trying to help her, things keep getting complicated," Ajoke reasoned.
"I‟d better let her be before she starts to see me as a witch... Eledua, you
know I wish her good, all I do is for her good ooo," Ajoke said to the empty
space in front of her.
101
There and then, she made up her mind to give Pamilerin some space.
***
Winter was trimming her nails, she didn't know she was going to be
meeting Freeman's wife, so she had to work on her appearance.
She knew no woman wanted to see a beautiful woman working with her
husband. Winter trimmed her nails and made them plain like that of a
secondary school student.
She stood in front of the mirror thinking of what next to do to make her less
attractive.
"My hair!" Winter said to herself.
Winter took her scissors and trimmed her long hair to be very short.
She took her makeup kit and spoke to it like she was talking to a friend,
"Dear Makeup kit, you will be going on a break for about two weeks, your
girl has to go low-key for a while...don't worry when this is all over, I
promise to kit you up more. I will add up more to you", she pledged
solemnly.
Winter opened one of the drawers and threw the makeup purse in there.
"Now ...it's time to get dirty."
102
***
Freeman found himself smiling throughout the night. He kept imagining
what 70 million dollars would do to his life.
He wasn't going to marry Mrs. Winter on paper. He had a plan. He would

draw her close to his family, make them become best of friends. That way,
she would build trust in him.
"Thank you God for this jackpot."
***
"The next time you try escaping from here, I will turn you into a goat, at
least that way I will be able to tie you down as someone advised me to do,"
Baba Shagba said. He had followed Beauty to the room. Their voice had
woken Lara up.
"Someone? Who is the someone who asked you to tie me down. Winter my
friend? I know everything. I may be blind but I am not ignorant of what is
happening," Beauty summoned the courage to say.
"How dare you talk back at me?" Baba Shagba replied as a cover-up for his
shock.
Baba Shagba walked out of the room thinking about how she got to know
the truth about her friend.
"Tell Winter not to come back here, because if she does I will kill her,"
Beauty shouted behind him.
103
***
Winter was through with achieving the new look she wanted to wear. Her
phone rang and the last person she wanted to hear from was calling her.
"Baba Shagba, what is it?"
"The bird already knows ..."
"What do you mean she already knows? How?"
"I don't know but she said she knows what you are doing. In her words, she
said " I may be BLIND, but I am not ignorant."
"Oh she is not ignorant, that means she knows too much. Baba Shagba, I
give her to you as a gift, whatever you want to use her for, you have my
permission. No one will ask of her if she disappears.”
"Winter, if I understand you clearly, you don't want to see her again?"
"Exactly, and I hope you get rid of her fast, so I can bring other jobs to you,
you know as long as she is there, I can't come there anymore."
"I know what to do. Before you finish what you have to do for the two weeks
you said, I would have discarded her."
"Alright! But Baba Shagba what is happening to the man's wife. She ought
to be dead by now."
104
"I am still working on a powerful arrow of death."
"Ok, her death must happen within these two weeks." Winter urged.
"Don't worry, it is done."
***
Freeman tried as much as possible to suppress his excitement as they

waited to receive Mrs. Winter that day.
The kids had gone to school, he, Remi, and Pamilerin were the only ones at
home.
"You are sweating? Why?" Pamilerin asked Freeman.
"No, I am not sweating. I just have a little sweat on my face," Freeman

responded.
Pamilerin looked at Remi who was also surprised at Freeman‟s words.
"You are not sweating but you just have a little sweat on your face?"
Pamilering repeated the statement to Freeman.
"Are you okay, babe?" Pamilerin asked.
Freeman realized his stupidity.
105
"What did I say?" He asked.
Pamilerin laughed at him, while Remi also did the same but was more
discreet.
The bell chimed.
It was the security guard informing them about Winter's arrival.
"Let her in," Freeman pressed the receiver's end before saying.
Pamilerin stood up in anticipation, likewise, Freeman found himself

expectant of her coming.
Pamilerin and Freeman walked out to the compound to welcome her in

honour.
But as Winter stepped down, Pamilerin‟s immediate reaction told Winter

she had succeeded in convincing Freeman's wife that she wasn't going to be
attractive to her husband.
On the other hand, Freeman stood in shock at the transformation. The

beautiful woman he saw yesterday was not the same standing in front of
him.
"Welcome ma...I love your haircut..." Pamilerin said in other to break the
ice.
106
"She is not here to snatch my husband," Pamilerin said reassuringly to

herself “ Freeman can never fall for a woman like this.
"Aww...thank you ma Mrs. Freeman..... And I must say you are a beauty to
behold ...." Winter replied. She noticed Freeman's wife was limping.
"Are you okay?" She asked pointing to the leg.
"Just a minor accident" Pamilerin replied.
"No accident is minor, can I take a look at it? I did a short course in
alternative bone treatment. My husband had...I mean my late husband had
rheumatism. I am sorry I haven't gotten over the death of my husband....so
I still forget to add late to him when referring to him.." Winter said.
"Oh, I am so sorry...." Pamilerin said.
"It's okay... I will be fine, it's just a hard pill for me to swallow, you know
when God gives you the perfect husband and you lose him, you just know
it's all over, but I am grateful anyway that I got to enjoy love at some point
in my life. Some of my friends tell me to remarry, but I have told them
NEVER! I can never find another man like my husband." Winter said in a
rush, she wanted to pass a message to Pamilerin. She wanted Pamilerin to
think she was not here for her husband.
"I am sorry, I am meeting you for the first time and I have not even stepped
in, here I am telling you all about my life. Forgive me, your leg brought back
memories."
107
Freeman could sense what Mrs. Winter was trying to establish, but he was
wondering why the change of look.
"It's okay ma, I can imagine what it feels like losing someone you love.
Don't see your bone treatment training as a loss, I would definitely need
your help with my leg,"
"Aww...Thank you for your kind words."
"Please come in."
Winter saw the door of the house opening unto her, she knew she was going
in to wreck the home. She smiled to herself and she felt someone patting
her on the shoulder.
"Winter the Wrecker, Wreck this ship and steal all the treasures they have
on board," She said to herself with a smile no one saw.

Remi saw the strange woman walking into their house. She had shivers all
over her body the moment she set her eyes on the woman. That caused her
to drop the glass cup in her hand.
"Remi, are you okay?" Freeman looked at Remi angrily.
"I am sorry sir, I am sorry ma...Welcome ma..." Remi said running back
into the kitchen.
Pamilerin quickly followed Remi into the kitchen. It was odd. Remi was
always very careful.
"Remi, what is wrong with you... Why are you shaky?" Pamilerin said on
entering the kitchen.
"I don't know ma, but I feel all shaky. The moment the woman entered my
body started vibrating. Mummy, who is she?" Remi summoned the courage
to say.
"Well, she is Daddy's new business partner!" Pamilerin replied.
"Ok... I hope she is a good person. I have never felt like this before... I am
shaky and my heart is beating so fast like something terrible is about to
happen and there is a strong urgency to it," Remi said.
"My baby is speaking big English these days ooo, is it the course you are
going to study in school that is making you speak all these big grammar,"
Pamilerin said not regarding all Remi said about the woman but
concentrating instead on her use of words.
109
"Yes ma, I have been picking new words" Remi quickly said.
Remi stared at her expecting her to say something about what she raised
concerning the woman.
"Why are you staring at me? Oh! The woman? Don't worry she means no
harm, maybe you are shy and that's why you are shaky!" Pamilerin said
and walked out after filling the glass cup with water.
***
While Pamilerin was in the kitchen, Freeman seized the moment to ask the
question that had been tugging at his heart.
"Why the new look? The hair cut? This was not the you I left yesterday."
"I like to build trust, I wanted you to be less attracted to me, and make your
wife see me as a no rival," Winter responded.
"Oh...that's nice, but you didn't have to do this… I feel it's too extreme and
besides, if you are trying to look less attractive, I think you have failed,
because the haircut actually makes you look younger," Freeman said
laughing making it look like a joke, but Mrs. Winter pretended not to get
the joke as she looked blankly at him.
"Are you okay?" Pamilerin said to Winter from behind Freeman.
"I am fine." Winter replied.
110
Freeman and Pamilerin could sense something was wrong,
"Ma, your countenance has changed," Freeman observed.
"Yeah, I just heard something that threw me off balance .I should go, I can
repeat this visit another time," Winter stood up pretending to be on her way
out.
"Ma... what's wrong? Did I say something to upset you?" Pamilerin asked.
"I shouldn't bother you about it, I thought sacrificing my hair would make
you accept me but I guess I failed."
"What are you talking about?" Pamilerin asked as Freeman stood there
perplexed. He didn't know what game Mrs. Winter was trying to play.
Winter turned to Pamilerin and said,
“ I guess I better say things the way they are.”
Freeman kept watching her. He was so shocked at how things were

unfolding right in front of him that he found himself tongue-tied.
"Ok?" Pamilerin said setting the glass cup on the table and getting a seat to
sit on to prepare herself for whatever blow that was coming. The leg pain
was suddenly swallowed up by the anxiety she was feeling.
"Actually, this is not my look. I had to shave my hair yesterday because I

was coming here. I didn't want to look too glamorous so I don't look to you
111
that I will snatch your husband from you since we will be working closely as
a result of my intended investment. My husband left more than 70 million
dollars to me, and I can't just invest it somewhere and walk away...So me
having this look was to make you see me as unattractive but as Mr.
Freeman was asking me why the haircut, I explained why and to my shock
and disappointment he told me the haircut still made me beautiful. So it
kind of hit me badly that you may be seeing me as an attractive lady who
may seduce your husband." Winter gave her calculated explanation.
"Aww, you shouldn't have done that, I trust my husband."
"Really? Wooowwww....Thank God! I mean It's hard to find understanding

women like yours," Winter replied.
"Only insecure women fear that their husbands will be snatched from
them," Pamilerin emphasised.
"That means I can be myself whenever I am around your family."
"Sure..." Pamilerin said.
There was a brief moment of silence. Each person thinking different things.
"70 million dollars!" Pamilerin exclaimed in her thoughts.
"So this woman has 70 million dollars to her name!" Pamilerin reasoned.
"I must get close to her...really close. I can't leave Freeman alone to build
the working relationship with this woman. I must build a strong friendship
with her. Who knows she might give me some millions to start my
business."
112
"So where do you stay?" Pamilerin asked wanting to change the line of
conversation.
"I stay at the Renaissance apartment. I was thinking of getting an

apartment like yours but I think it's not wise since I will be the only one.
That's why I opted for a one-bedroom apartment at Rennaissance..."
"But isn't that on the high side...I mean Renaissance...we are talking weekly
rent in millions."
"I don't have an option..."
"You don't have relatives here?"
"No, they stay in the east."
"Friends?"
"Lost contact with them, you know I relocated after my secondary school. I
was hoping to reach out to them but there is a popular saying about not
knowing what your friends have been up to since you left them, so I am a
bit skeptical also."
"Yeah...you are right" Pamilerin replied.
"But, I think I found a family friend in you," Winter said.
"Aww, that's such a great honour ma," Pamilerin responded.
113
***
Remi stood by the kitchen door eavesdropping. She could tell there was
something off about the woman.
"God please let mummy see this woman for who she is," Remi prayed
silently.
***
Winter could tell she was winning.
"I should be leaving but I was hoping to see the kids."
"Why? Are you in a hurry to leave? You have not tasted the delicious meal I
prepared," Pamilerin said trying to create more familiarity.
"And we could go pick up my daughters together," Pamilerin said.
Winter and Freeman shared a look.
They could see that their working relationship would be smooth.
***
"I‟d advise you to accept your fate. Stop fighting where destiny has put you.
Some of us are not fortunate. I don't know what I am doing here, pregnant
for an old dirty, wicked herbalist. I have accepted my fate. I advise you do
the same, so you don't end up dead or you become an inanimate object. I
heard he has turned a woman who refused his advances to a stone.
114
Embrace this new life. I see you as my elder sister. Let's be there for each
other. I promise to be your eyes around here,” Lara said to Beauty.
Beauty had been sobbing nonstop, since her plan to escape failed.
She nodded in agreement with Lara.
This was her new normal.
***
Pamilerin was so excited, she couldn't contain her joy.
"I like her," she said to Freeman on the bed.
"Yeah..she is nice."
"She is like our door to greatness," Pamilerin said "With her investing that
amount of money into your... Jesus!!!! We are made forever. Freeman,
please don't mess this up...Opportunities like this come once in a while."
"I will make use of the opportunity well," Freeman said.
"And I was thinking, that money she spends in that place she is staying is
way too much... We can let her stay in the kids' room, while the kids move
to Remi's room. That way, she will know we also care about her and we are
not after her money alone."
115
"Alone?" Freeman said as he could tell his wife had switched to the
business-minded Pamilerin
"Babe, don't let's deceive ourselves, we are after her money, but let's make it
subtle... Let's build her trust in us."
"But living with us?"
"Temporarily... After about a month, I will convince her to buy a house

instead, but let us use this one month opportunity to draw her close to
us...Freeman, don't let another person get hold of this woman oooo."
Pamilerin said.
"Ok…You are the woman of the house... Whatever you say is fine..."
Freeman agreed. A part of him wasn't totally comfortable as he was scared
of having Mrs. Winter in close proximity every day...It was going to be
tempting.
"Thank you Freeman...Let me send her a message."
Pamilerin picked up her phone and sent a text to Winter. They had
exchanged numbers earlier before she left.
The text read, “It was nice having you at our place today. It felt like I have
known you all my life. I am however worried about all the money you are
spending at Renaissance...If you won't mind staying at our place till when
you get a permanent accommodation, it would be a pleasure to have you."
***
116
Winter was applying her night face cream, when she got Pamilerin's text.
On getting the text, she jumped up continuously, running around in the
room, and into the living room screaming,
"Yes...I did it...I am the “baddest” girl in the building... Winter, you are the
bomb!"

Winter knew she had to play the game differently. She couldn't move into
their house. That way she would be visible to their friends and family. Their
friends would spot her out immediately. She had to take them away from
where they had people who could talk sense into them. Also, should Beauty
find a way to escape, she could return to the house.
She was going to play this card Pamilerin had handed her differently.
Winter picked up her phone, sending a reply;

"So thoughtful of you, but I am afraid I might be turning it down. Your
house is pretty small (no offense). I wouldn't want to be a burden. Thank
you so much for the thought."
She sent the text and waited for the answer... She knew she would be
awake.
Pamilerin texted back,

“No way are you a burden, it's a pleasure to have someone like you at our
home, we will make the girls vacate their room and they will be staying
with my maid. Besides it is temporarily.”
Winter got the text, shook her head, and said out loud, "STUPID WOMAN!"
Winter sent a reply,

"Now, you want to make me cry... so much love... or how about this? Why
don't I buy a five-bedroom apartment at Banana Island and you move in
119
with me instead? I would definitely love to be in the same house with the
most amazing couple I have ever met and we can live as brothers and
sisters while I am around. After I go back to Canada, you can either
remain in the house or return to yours."
Pamilerin jumped from the bed on receiving the message.
"Jesus! Is this how you answer prayers? Banana Island? And the house will
become ours after she is gone?" Pamilerin started dancing.
Freeman turned to see his wife dancing.
"What's up?"
"You know your wife is smart right?'" Pamilerin said jumping back to the
bed.
"Yeah, what has my smart wife done?" Freeman asked. He knew when
Pamilerin switches to business mode, her brain was always in overdrive.
"I sent her a text about her coming to live with us, and she replied
appreciating it but she felt she would be inconveniencing us, soooooo ....."
Pamilerin said feeling very excited.
"Sooooo?" Freeman couldn't imagine what was coming next.
"So, she is getting us a 5 bedroom apartment in Banana Island, so we can

stay together. " Pamilerin modified the truth a bit.
120
"Us?" Freeman questioned.
"Yeah... The house will be ours, we will stay there after she is gone!"
Pamilerin explained.
Freeman was short of words, he was beginning to see this whole

arrangement as wrong, but on the other hand, since Pamilerin was involved
things would not go wrong.
But he needed to speak with this woman!
He stood up from the bed and picked up his laptop.
"I have to finish up some work," Freeman announced as he walked out to

the living room. It wasn't out of the ordinary as Freeman was always using
the dining table if he had to work from home.
"Ok... now, it is my turn to sleep," Pamilerin said happily.
***
Beauty wasn't sleeping as her night was the same as her day.
She had decided to follow Lara's advice but something kept reminding her
of a prophecy that was said concerning her as a little child.
While living with her grandmother, she had followed her grandmother to
several churches. Her grandmother was always going from one church to
the other.
121
On one of such church outings, specifically at a white garment church, a

young girl had prophesied to her in these words, “Darkness is coming to
face you, but if you make the Lord your light, His light will swallow that
darkness.”
The words started echoing in Beauty's ears and though it had been over 20
years, it was sounding fresh in her ears.
"Is this the darkness I am supposed to face?" she asked herself.
***
Remi was having a nightmare. She found herself fighting against thick
darkness that had the form of a woman. She struggled with it, but the
moment she shouted "BLOOD OF JESUS!" the figure disappeared.
***
Dearest Mum was having a revelation as well.
She saw a little child she had bathed for running back into the mud and
messing her beautiful dress up.
Dearest Mum woke up and the first name that came to her mind was
Pamilerin.
She immediately picked her phone and dialed her number.
***
122
Pamilerin was already sleeping. She heard the phone ringing, she saw the
caller ID, it was "Private Number".
"I am not in the mood for any scammer this night." She ended the call and
went back to sleep.
***
Freeman dialed Winter's number. Winter was expecting the call.
"Hello...I have been expecting your call... Why is your wife bent on me
staying at your place." Winter attacked. It was all part of the game.
"Erm... I..." Freeman was caught off guard. Freeman knew Pamilerin could
be pushy if she wanted to achieve something especially business-wise but
he thought Pamilerin said Mrs. Winter was willing to stay with them.
"I think she likes you... She is not usually this friendly," Freeman quickly
defended his wife.
"I hope so... so what do you think about me getting the five-bedroom?"
"You don't have to get it... I mean she only offered you our place because
she felt concerned about you spending so much at Renaissance, but if you
are cool with where you are, just turn down her offer."
"That might destroy the trust we are trying to build. I think I know the
game your wife is trying to play... I was once a married woman, so I can
understand what she is playing at... Bring the rival close so you can watch
closely... Your wife wants me under the same roof so she can have her eyes
on me."
123
"No... I don't think so, my wife would never want to set her eyes on
someone I am dating."
"Dating? You talk like we are already in a relationship..." Winter said

laughing.
"Never mind, I was just pulling your legs," Winter quickly added when she
felt the brief silence.
"In the process of pulling the legs, please don't let me lose it," Freeman
replied with a joke.
They both shared a moment of laughter before Winter said,

"On a second thought, I think your wife is genuinely nice, maybe I am just
overthinking things. I will get the apartment tomorrow. At least let's get to
know ourselves for one or two months, who knows I may not need the
assurance of marriage."
"We may not?" Freeman felt like he just heard the best news of his life.
"Yeah, like I told you, I was proposing the marriage to protect myself, but if
we become real family friends, my fears may become nonexistent."
"Thank you! Thank you for trusting us.”
"It's okay.” Winter replied. She knew she had won him over. Humans are
greedy. She knew how she won him. He wanted something without giving
out anything in exchange.
124
"Selfish goat! You think you won't give anything yet you want to get 70
million dollars, Sorry bro, you are going to give everything and get nothing.
Ole! Thief! Barawo!" Winter said within herself.
"So let me allow you get some sleep. I am the one who doesn't sleep. Don't
let me initiate you into that!" Winter said putting another card on their
game table. She was going to need that card someday.
"You don't sleep? Why?"
"Insomnia...after I lost my husband, I hardly sleep three hours a day!"
"Why not try sleeping pills?"
"Pills are not my thing! I will be fine... maybe when I stay around you guys,
I might get to sleep soundly."
"Well, I believe that would happen." Freeman laughed.
"So I hope this is not a bad time to ask, since the marriage assurance is out
of the way, when are we going to be signing the papers," Freeman asked.
"Two months from now. Allow me to live with your family for two months
and see if I can entrust all I have into your hands."
"Fair enough.” Freeman said smiling. He had a thing for wise and smart
women. He liked the fact Mrs. Winter was business-minded. She would
eventually make a great business partner.
125
After ending the call he smiled to himself.

"My life is made. I will have two women in my life who will help my career
A business-minded wife and a rich business partner. "
***
Winter couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Now, it is time to have a beautiful threesome!" Winter said throwing her

fist in the air.

"Do you like it?" Winter asked as she took Freeman and Pamilerin round
the six-bedroom duplex she had bought. She had withdrawn the money
from her husband's account. She knew trouble would come knocking soon
from that quarters but she had to handle this first.
"Like? You mean do you love? Love is even an understatement. Wow, this is
my dream home," Pamilerin said excitedly.
"So when are you moving in?" Winter asked.
"Like since yesterday," Pamilerin answered laughing.
"Your children will love the play area at the back."
"There is a play area?" Pamilerin asked with eyes popped out in happiness
and disbelief.
"Yes, and a swimming pool," Winter affirmed laughing.
Freeman's phone rang. It was one of the investors he had been chasing for
over two years. When he saw the called ID, his heart flipped. He knew it
was wise for him to step aside and receive the call.
"I have to take this call, you can go ahead, I will join you," he said.
127
Winter wondered who the caller was and why he couldn't pick up the call in
front of his wife.
"Maybe another girlfriend? Hmm...this guy may not be as simple as I think

he is," Winter thought as she kept looking over her shoulder to where
Freeman was answering his call.
"Oh my goodness! This is amazing! Mrs. Winter, you are an answer to my

prayers... Oh my God... this place is like paradise," Pamilerin said as she
gushed at the property and excitedly turned around in mini circles. .
"Your husband has another woman," Winter said out of the blues. She was
getting tired of Pamilerin acting like a child. She wanted to speed up this
game.
"Sorry?" Pamilerin turned to face her suddenly.
"I am sorry. Forget you heard me say anything. I sometimes get carried
away when I see women being cheated on, especially good women." Winter
responded.
"I don't get you. What is it you know about him that you don‟t want me to
know? Pamilerin queried.
"Can your heart take it and you won't react like a child?" Winter replied.
"I am not a child!" Pamilerin said faking a smile.
128
"Well, ever since your husband and I met, I notice he receives all calls in
front of me, but one particular call, he moves away. I think he has a pet
name for her. He calls her Beauty."
Pamilerin's world came crashing. Beauty was the lady Freeman just broke
up with.
"He is still seeing her?" Pamilerin said as she staggered a bit and fell into
the pool. Winter jumped into the pool. At that moment, Freeman turned
back, Winter quickly faked a smile giving him the impression they were
playing. Freeman also could not hang up, instead, he walked away.
"Are you okay? Can you swim?" Winter asked with a concerned look.
Pamilerin nodded and with a shaky voice said, “But he told me it was over
between them.”
"That's a big lie. They talk every day. He is definitely speaking with her."
Winter said.
Pamilerin made the move to approach him but Winter pulled her back into
the water and made her rest her back on the wall of the pool.
"And where are you going? To confront him? Sister, don't be a baby... If you
do, out of cowardice he will tell the other girl off and that girl will get mad
at you.”
And I don't know if you know, some of these girls are witches, they will go
diabolical on your case. Sis, they will kill you before you know."
129
"So I should just let him continue this wickedness? I made Freeman.
Freeman's business grew because of my guardians.”
"There is a way to go about things like this. Don't be a small girl. We can
scatter them and put him under your armpit."
"Put him under my armpit?"
"Yes sis, that was the mistake I made. My husband died on a woman. He
had a heart attack while riding her. When the Police arrested her, she
confessed to putting my husband under her armpit. Sister, if I had known
about putting men under one's armpit, my husband would still be alive. At
least I would have sent such woman away from him."
"Like seriously, how can I put him under my armpit?" Pamilerin asked "I
hope it is not anything diabolic?"
"No, just herbal aphrodisiac. It is from plants. God created plants for our
use, it will increase your husband's sexual appetite for you. All he will be
thinking about is you and that will make him run away from other women."
Winter explained.
"Really? I think I have heard about it before, but I thought it was evil as it
was used by most side chicks to snatch men from their wives," Pamilerin
said.
"Well, don't you think housewives need to be smarter, it is better they use it
on their husbands before the side chicks use it. You had better use it before
this Beauty lady uses it on your husband." Winter said.
130
Pamilerin felt uncertain about it but thinking about all the money Freeman
would be making from Mrs. Winter soon, she didn't want to lose out. She
didn't want Beauty displacing her.
She nodded her head in agreement to Winter.
"How do we get it?"
"We will order it and it will be delivered to us," Winter knew better than
suggesting Pamilerin should follow her to Baba Shagba, besides she wasn't
planning to give her the aphrodisiac. She was going to give her something
else. The exact opposite of what she would be expecting.
Baba Shagba was going to prepare the charm and send it through a
despatch rider. She would tell Baba Shagba to package it well.
"How much?" Pamilerin asked distracting Winter from her thoughts.
"Leave that to me, it would be a gift from me to you. You should get it in 3
days, but meanwhile, don't let your husband suspect anything." Winter
warned.
"Let's get out of this pool."
"Sure, can we go in? I think the way I fell into the water put more pressure
on the leg. I am beginning to have the burning sensation.”
"Oh, the leg! I can ask the Aphrodisiac woman if she has any ointment that
can help with the pain,” Winter offered.
131
"That will be nice... Thank you so much... Are you real?" Pamilerin asked
smiling.
"Am I real? What do you mean?" Winter feared Pamilerin was beginning to
suspect her.
"I mean, you are everything I have been praying for. A friend, a sister, a
confidant, an adviser... I should tell you my story one of these days. I grew
up as a maid so I didn't have friends. The daughters of my boss turned
guardian always saw me as the girl from the village though they pretended
to see me as their equal, but I could read a lot in their eyes."
"Really? You are no longer a maid, you are a beautiful, strong woman!"
Winter said as she softly touched Pamilerin's cheeks. She had seen an entry
point. She pulled her from the water.
"Let me carry you on my back to reduce the pressure on your leg," Winter
offered.
Winter crouched expecting Pamilerin to hop on her back. She could see that
Pamilerin was a woman who saw herself less of who she was. She would be
hungry for female acceptance and female love.
"No way, I weigh 80kg," Pamilerin said smiling.
"Try me..." Winter challenged.
Pamilerin hopped on her back laughing.
132
"So tell me more about yourself..." Winter said as she carried her towards
the house.
Freeman saw Mrs. Winter carrying Pamilerin, he wasn‟t comfortable with

the sight.
***
Freeman laid on the bed full of excitement. He was however trying so hard
to curtail the excitement so Pamilerin wouldn't get the gist of what had
happened earlier.
He was having the best time of his life.
The investor who called him earlier said he was finally ready to invest one
billion Naira into his company.
Wow!
The man was one of the popular businessmen in the country. He had been
trying to convince him for two years, but suddenly he was interested in
investing.
"1 billion Naira!"
"Maybe I should drop Mrs. Winter, Chief Gabriel is a better option. He

already had a business network in the country and besides it was safer
partnering with someone of the same sex." Freeman had thought earlier but
on a second thought, he saw it as stupidity losing one investor when he
could have two.
133
"I will keep the two of them, but I won't tell Pamilerin yet." Freeman had
concluded on their way back from the house.
He noticed Pamilerin was getting too interested in the finance of his

business. It was therefore wise not to let her in on the 1 billion Naira
investment.
"Who called you this afternoon while we were at the house?" Pamilerin
questioned.
Freeman jumped in fear.
"You were not sleeping?" Freeman asked as he tried to gather his thoughts.
"Obviously!" Pamilerin replied.
"Not someone important ...just an old friend," Freeman said.
"And you had to go to a corner to receive her call?"
"Firstly, it wasn't a "her". It was a "He" and secondly as much as we are

trying to be open and friendly with Mrs. Winter, I am not about to open my
entire life to her. That leads me to saying, you should be careful. I see how
you adore her, remember, you just met her. Also, I don't think we should
move in with her."
"What? You are just saying that now? After she has paid for the house
because of us? Too late dear husband. If you are not ready to move in with
us, myself, my children and Remi would move in.Freeman don't spoil this
big chance God has given us to be better than those who thought what
134
could possibly come out from us." Pamilerin said referring to Dearest
Mum's children. Pamilerin had hidden envy and bitterness towards Dearest
Mum's daughters. She felt they thought less of her and she hopes to one day
be richer than them.
Freeman wanted to tell her about the new door that was opened but he
restrained himself.
"There is no harm in having two options, I will keep both of them and
whoever signs first wins me," Freeman concluded.
Pamilerin on the other hand knew she needed the Aphrodisiac so she could
put Freeman under her armpit, for him not to mess up this opportunity.

PART 23
©Opeyemi Akintunde
The next two weeks went by so fast, a lot happened.
Pamilerin moved in with Winter. She went with her children and Remi.
Remi felt like she was walking on air. She couldn‟t tell what was happening.
The day Pamilerin had told her they were moving to a new house, she had
been surprised.
“What is wrong with this house?” Remi had asked.
“Nothing. God has provided a bigger one. Daddy‟s business partner has
bought us a new one,” Pamilerin replied.
“That woman?” Remi asked with a question in her voice.
“Yes! That woman ... Remi! I noticed you have been unhappy since this
woman came into our home. Are you an enemy of progress? Don‟t let me
start suspecting anything evil about you!” Pamilerin said insinuating Remi
was about to allow the devil to use her against their family.
“I am sorry ma‟am!”
Remi was more confused when they started moving into the house and she
realized they would be living with the woman while Freeman would be
staying at the old house.
She couldn‟t ask questions so as not to be seen as the enemy of progress.

136
She had however overheard series of conversations that gave her a hint of
what was happening.
One day, she overheard the couple arguing.
“This is the problem I have with you, you start something big and run away.
We agreed to move in with the woman so we could build a good
relationship and earn her trust... 70 million dollars is not a small amount to
collect from her. Stop behaving like an ingrate,” Pamilerin had said.
“Pamilerin, I am just trying to be careful, I don‟t want all of us sailing in her

ship, what if the ship capsizes, who will be on land to save our family. Let
me stay on the outside, I will come over every weekend to stay with you
guys.” Freeman said holding Pamilerin.
“Fine...I hope that is the main reason you are staying back.” Pamilerin said
referring to Beauty.
Pamilerin had used the aphrodisiac portion as given to her by Winter but
she had not seen the exceptional love Winter said she would see. Instead,
he was becoming withdrawn.
When she complained to Winter, Winter said maybe the side chic might
have used something more powerful. Winter promised to get something
more effective.
Winter on the other hand also had a lot on her plate. This was the first time
she was trying to handle two men at the same time. She had the man in
Abuja who had been calling nonstop. He had been angry at her for
137
withdrawing the money to buy the house in Banana Island. She had
however cooked up a story.
“Babe, it‟s my friend‟s house. You know the friend I came to stay with, her
sickness is really going out of hand and she wanted to sell the house
cheaply, so I decided to buy it for us. It is really a cheap buy.”
“But you should have told me, you should have informed me ahead. You
know Joy also receives credit alerts on her phone for that account.” Her
latest man had said.
Joy was the man‟s second daughter who was the hard one of the family. She
didn‟t like Winter one bit, and she had told Winter to her face. However,
Winter didn‟t want to raise any dust, so she refused hurting her. She was
going to deal with her after her father‟s demise.
Joy had sent a message.
“Hey Gold digger, you may think you have found a place to dig gold from,
I have told you before and I will repeat it, my family is off-limits. If you
are in this marriage for love, enjoy it but if you are in it for the money,
you are not going to get any of it. I have seen that you withdrew money
from my father’s account, count that as the only money you are ever going
to get out of us, the next huge money you try to withdraw will be used by
your family for your burial. It’s not a threat. I am for real.”
Winter had turned her neck to the left and to the right after reading the
text, she usually did that whenever someone was becoming a pain in the
neck.
138
“Joy, I thought I should let you enjoy your father‟s wealth a little before I
take everything over, but I guess the grave is inviting you earlier than your
arrival time,” Winter had said to herself in the mirror.
She thought of how to get rid of her, she knew diabolical would be fast and
easy as Joy was not a spiritual person, but Winter was skeptical of Baba
Shagba. He had not delivered on Pamilerin, so he might fail with Joy.
“An assassin will do it fast and well,” Winter concluded as she took another
shot of her hot alcoholic drink.
As she laid on her bed that night, she reflected on how the last two weeks
had played out. It played out the way she wanted it to be with Pamilerin but
Freeman had altered her plans a bit, but nevertheless, she had modified her
own plans too.
She had told Baba Shagba to make two portions. One was a love portion for
Freeman to fall in love with her, while the other was a hatred portion which
was to work against Pamilerin. However, Pamilerin had told her she was
only able to use one of the portions, she said the second portion mistakenly
poured on the floor as Remi walked in on her.
Winter could not order a replacement from Baba Shagba as she didn‟t know
which one Pamilerin gave Freeman. She didn‟t want to give double of the
love portion. She didn‟t want him clinging to her. It would disrupt the plan,
she wanted it to be subtle.
The last two weeks had been hectic for all the game players but if only they
knew the game was about to get tough.
To be continued…

PART 24
©Opeyemi Akintunde
Pamilerin was having a strange feeling. She was ashamed to think about it.
Could it be right?
She had become so close to Winter, she wanted to be around her all the
time. She was thinking less of Freeman. In fact, she wasn't looking forward
to seeing him during the weekend.
Instead, as she stayed at home with the kids, she was always anxious to
receive Winter whenever she went out.
Remi noticed it too, she noticed her boss was treating the strange woman
like a lover. She was eager to cook for her, wash her clothes and the
intimacy between them was second to none. Remi watched on several
occasions her boss putting her head on the laps of Mrs. Winter and Mrs.
Winter would be stroking her hair and rubbing her bare arm.
Venita also noticed the change in their lifestyle which her young mind was
finding hard to understand. She was beginning to stay more in her new
room. Though the house had more fun things than the former house.
Venita was not happy staying there.
For her sisters, the feeling was not the same. They were excited about the
new house because that had a play area.
Their Mum had told them, they would be attending a new and more
expensive school. She told them the new woman wanted them in a better
school. Venita had been silent as she was the type who took her time to
analyze situations before protesting against it.
140
She however was getting to that point soon.
Since their arrival, a week ago, her mother had told them their father was
going to be there for the weekend, but it was Saturday evening already and
her father was nowhere in sight.
She heard a car driving into the compound, without checking to see if it was
her father's car, she dashed out of the room towards the living room
downstairs.
On getting downstairs, she saw her mother retouching her hair. Venita
smiled at that. Marriage was beautiful, she appreciated the fact that after all
these years, her mum always wanted to look good for her Dad.
"Hey! Welcome Sis..." Venita heard when her mother said those words with
excitement as soon as their host stepped in...
Venita didn't speak a word of greeting to her, instead, she ran out to check
if her Dad was out there. She ran back inside.
"Mummy, can I have a word with you?" Venita asked.
Winter and Pamilerin were surprised at the tone of Venita's words. Winter
noticed out of the three girls, she had not warmed up to her.
"Venita, is everything alright? Were you expecting someone else? Oh! Your
Dad? He is on his way, he should be here soon, he had some unplanned
meetings to attend to." Winter the game player quickly said. She also had
been trying to get a hold on him all week but he was always at one meeting
141
or the other. Winter kept wondering if this was how busy his life was or if
he was seeing another woman. At that point, she wished she knew which
portion Pamilerin had given him.
Back to the present, Venita nodded her head in acknowledgement of

Winter's explanation but she still needed to speak to her mother privately.
Pamilerin pulled her daughter out of the house far away from the main
building.
"Venita, what is it?" Pamilerin asked with a serious look and tone.
"Mummy, what are we doing here? As much as this place feels like paradise,
I don't feel comfortable here. I love our house, at least we own it. It is not
rented," Venita said.
"We can't live there anymore. God has upgraded us."
"Mummy, I don't like it here. Mummy when last did we have our morning
or night devotion? Now you and that woman gist or watch movies till 3 am.
I miss how we were living before," Venita said with teary eyes.
"Hey, baby...We are not where we used to be. Darling, there is the time to
pray or work hard and there is the time to eat the fruit of our labour.
Venita, you can agree that there is no day we didn't pray about God sending
us help, darling God has answered..." Pamilerin said.
She looked sideways to ensure no one was coming their way, she continued
but in a very low tone.
142
"Venita, this woman, Mrs. Winter is so rich she can buy our entire family
but thankfully she is the one at our mercy. She wants to invest in your
Daddy's business so she can make more money. Baby, we are going to be
billionaires soon. We will have our own private jet and anytime we go for
the yearly party at Grandma's house, you will flaunt your parents' wealth in
their faces. You will let them know that Jesus has blessed your parents too,"
Pamilerin said referring to Dearest Mom's grandchildren.
"But Mummy, that is not right, you taught us not to be boastful." Venita
said.
"That's not boasting ...it's showing that God is also good to us," Pamilerin
quickly defended herself.
"Mummy, have you been jealous of my aunties all this while because they
are richer than us?" Venita asked.
"Nooo...Why would you say that?"
"You are sounding like that! Besides mum, I hope you are not putting your
trust in man. You taught us that woe to anyone who puts his or her trust in
man. You are worshipping this Aunty. Yesterday I saw you washing her
panties."
"I...I....was just trying to be humble and appreciative of how she is willing to

help our family."
"I thought you said she is the one at our mercy. Mummy, you are confusing
me... Mummy, do you want to know how I really feel?" Venita said as
Pamilerin nodded in the positive.
143
"Mummy, I don't like her... she makes me scared...she gives me chills,

Mummy, I have this feeling she is evil and her mission is to destroy our
family.."
"Shut up!" Pamilerin accompanied that order with a slap.
"Who has been feeding you with the trash you just vomited out of your
mouth, clearly not from me... Oh! Let me guess ...Remi?"
Pamilerin pushed Venita aside and went hunting for Remi.
** *
Winter waited for Pamilerin and Venita to be out of her view. As they
stepped out, Winter picked up her phone. She dialed Freeman's number.
"Your daughter wants to see you. You promised to be seeing them by

weekends, she has been waiting or are you not interested in my investment
again?"

Timothy heard a word.
"Arise!"

Timothy got up from the sofa where he had dozed off.
"Arise!" He had heard the familiar voice of his Maker.
He rose just as he had heard.
He looked around.
He wondered what the Lord wanted him to see around him. He looked
under the table.
"God, what is it?"
He went to the window, drew his curtain aside. What he saw, was the
regular scenario. Children playing around in the compound. He was used
to God's way of talking to him. He knew God spoke in few words to him,
sometimes one word, two words, or three. Whenever he heard the words,
he would have to be patient and be quiet in his Spirit to understand the
message God was trying to convey to him.
He stood by the window, trying to see if anything out of the ordinary was
going to happen, but for the next fifteen minutes, he saw nothing.
As he turned to return to his sofa, he heard a second word..." Evangelism".

145
"Oh! God wants me to Evangelize!" Timothy smiled out of the satisfaction

of knowing what God wanted him to do.
"I will get on the street first thing tomorrow before going to church."
"NOW!" He heard the third word.
"Arise! Evangelism! Now" Timothy put the words together.
"Ok Lord! I am on my way now!" Timothy said believing there was someone
he needed to preach to.
After five minutes of freshening up, he got out of the house. He thought of
going his usual route, but instead, he heard...
"LEFT!"
Timothy knew he definitely had an assignment that evening.
Timothy had walked about 15 minutes to the left. Every time he opened his
mouth to talk, he had the feeling of someone telling him "Not yet".
"SPEAK!" He heard the fourth word suddenly.
Timothy opened his mouth, his usual start-up line was, “We all go through
problems, but problems have someone they bow to.”
146
He opened his mouth to say those words but something else came out...
"Are you in captivity? He led the captivity captive. God can put your
captivity to become a captive to you. God has the power to put in captivity
your captor's right and power to hold you in captivity. I don't know what
has held you in captivity; is it immorality, gambling, sin, armed robbery, or
are you under someone's captivity, God can deliver you. Imagine this, use
your inner eyes to envision this even if you are physically blind, imagine a
man holding you down in prison and suddenly an army arrives and they
take this man captive, what do you think will happen to you?"
***
Beauty's blindness had made her ears more alert, most times she had to
block her ears with the pillow to reduce what she was hearing. Especially at
night, she heard words from far away.
She had heard a male endearing voice speaking about captivity. It felt like
he was talking directly to her. She tuned only to his frequency, and shut out
all the extra noise.
"Imagine this, use your inner eyes to envision this even if you are physically
blind."
Beauty froze.
"Does he know me?"
"Imagine a man holding you down in prison and suddenly an army troop
arrives and they take this man captive, what do you think will happen to
you?"
147
"The army will save the captive and automatically the captive will be under
the protection and care of the army," Beauty replied in her room, but she
knew her voice didn't pass her room. It, therefore, was surprising when the
preacher answered...
"Exactly, the troop will save the captive and afterwards care for the captive"
Beauty rose from the bed, she needed to follow the voice. This was the man
that could save her from this captivity she had found herself. She found the
wall and started following the wall to the door.
"Wait! Wait! Before you start thinking I am the solution to your problem or
I have an army to bring you out of your captivity. You don't have to come to
me."
Beauty stopped in her tracks. She felt like the man preaching must be
watching her.
"Well, the truth is God is the greatest deliverer who can bring you out of
that pit. It does not matter who put you in that pit. Even if the person is
your best friend in the world, it's not new, the brothers of Joseph were the
ones who put Joseph in the pit, but guess what God knows how to bring
people out of the pit and make them end up in the Palace. Joseph didn't
have anyone with him in the pit or in the prison, he only had God, so in that
room where you are right now, He is there with you. Go down on your
knees and talk to Him. Tell him to please get you out of your captivity."
Beauty stayed on the same spot with tears pouring out of her eyes. The man
was communicating with her. The question was,
148
“How does he know so much about me?” She asked herself with tears
pouring out of her eyes.
***
Timothy wondered what he just said. He felt he was blabbing. None of the
things he said was planned and he couldn't say those words if someone
asked him for a recap.
He knew definitely God had spoken to someone that evening. He turned

and returned home.
"I am happy with you!" Timothy heard the words that always made his
heart merry. Whenever God told him that, he always felt special.
"I am happy you are happy with me, thanks dear Lord for the privilege,"
Timothy said.

PART 26

Freeman was not planning to see Pamilerin and the girls that weekend. He
was having the feeling of disconnect from Pamilerin. However, the love he
had for his daughters was about compelling him to go over to Mrs. Winter's
house. The last two weeks had been awesome for him. It was possible he
was going to walk out of the deal with Mrs. Winter. Chief Gabriel's
investment in his company had more prospects and was legit. He didn't
have to enter any contractual marriage with anyone.
"Ok, I will be there!" He had given his word to Mrs. Winter some minutes
back. She had told him his daughters wanted to see him.
Freeman picked up his car keys. He had a two hours drive ahead of him. He
had better get some music to keep him company.
He went into their audio CD rack and picked out some CDS by his best
female musician.
She was an orator, she spoke words while she had backup singers who
made music out of her words. Whenever you listened to her music, you
would have the feeling she was seated next to you counselling you.
Freeman felt the urge to listen to her on the drive to his family.
Freeman got into his car, inserted one of the audio CDs into the car's CD
Player.
150
He wasn't sure he had listened to that Album before. It was titled "Oro
Ijinle"(DEEP WORDS).
As Freeman cruised, he enjoyed each track giving his best female musician
an applause after each track.
However, track eight struck him to the core.
The title of the Track was "EJO" (THE SERPENT)
"You left your post

You were not there
You thought she ought to be at home
You thought it was better you went to hustle
While she stayed at home
To wash the dishes and mop the ground
But little did you know that
The serpent was wiser than you...
No wonder the Holy Book said

You should be as wise as a serpent and gentle as a dove
The serpent knew the woman was what held the house down
So he knew the best way to pull the house down was to pull down the
woman.
The serpent paid her a visit
When you were out hustling
Or seeing other creatures
151
Other creatures that amused you,

Who were not your perfect match
The serpent met her lonely
The serpent knew what she wanted
Words...
Friendship...
The serpent gave it to her...
In exchange, she gave the serpent your demotion...
Every man's wife is the key to his demotion or promotion...
Don't let the serpent come in between you!"
Freeman stepped on the brake at that point in the middle of the road. The
orator had continued, but the few lines he had listened to had pierced his
heart.
He almost caused an accident, but he wasn't in the know of what was going
on around him for those few seconds. A veil had been torn from his face.
As the Orator said those last words, the picture that came to his mind was
Mrs. Winter.
Mrs. Winter was the serpent who was about to tear his marriage apart. He
remembered all her sexual advances towards him and how he had turned
them down politely. Freeman realized she had tried destroying their
marriage through him, but couldn't gain entrance. Just like the serpent
knew he couldn't access mankind through Adam, he went through Eve
152
instead; Mrs. Winter was about destroying his home through his wife
Pamilerin.
"No... Not on my watch!" Freeman said as he sped off.
"God bless you this woman for being the one the Lord used to open my
eyes... God bless you! Thank you for releasing this album," Freeman said
referring to his favourite female musician.
**
Winter was helping Pamilerin apply some face cream on her face.
Winter had told her, she was losing her beauty and needed to regain it.
Pamilerin was however feeling some sexual sensations as Winter applied
the cream on her face.
Unknown to Pamilerin, Winter was deliberate about what she was doing.
She wanted the woman's soul. She wanted to capture Pamilerin's soul so
that when she commanded Pamilerin to kill herself, she wouldn't think
twice about it.Winter knew how powerful a hold sex was and since she
couldn‟t get the husband to have sex with her, she was going to have it with
the wife.
Pamilerin quickly stepped back. All the sermons she had heard about
Lesbianism flashed across her mind haunting her. Her conscience was
nagging at her as well.
"This is not right!" Pamilerin said as she moved away from Winter.
"What?" Winter asked.

153
"You know what I am talking about!"
"Say it Pamilerin..."
Pamilerin looked at her and saw genuineness in Winter's eyes.
"Mrs. Winter, am I the only one feeling what I am feeling?"
"Pamilerin...what are you feeling?"
"Never mind... I guess I am just missing my husband too much," Pamilerin

said as she picked up her phone intending to walk out of Winter's room, but
Winter quickly stopped her.
"Pamilerin, you want to be with me the way you used to be with your
husband?" Winter said with fake tears dropping from her eyes.
That broke Pamilerin finally. She nodded affirmatively.
"I also want to be with you Pamilerin, I have always had this feeling for
women but I never got to experience it. Please can I experience it with you?
We can relocate to a country that allows same-sex marriage. We will take
your kids with us. We will get married and everything I have will belong to
you. I have a secret to share with you... I have had two marriages, not one...
I never enjoyed any of it. I know I will enjoy the one with you," Winter said
convincingly
154
Pamilerin didn't know what to do, should she forget everything she had
ever believed, and believe this woman she just met?

Beauty laid on the floor not knowing what she ought to do. The preacher
had said God could free her from this captivity but how was He going to do
it?
"How?" Was the question repeating itself in her mind.
She remembered the man saying she could talk to God in the captor's
captivity. It meant God could hear her.
"If you can hear me God, please save me from this captivity. I know I
walked into this cage myself. I shouldn't have dated another woman's
husband. I knew he was married but I was blinded by the feeling I had for
him. God, I am sorry but he was the first person who made me feel secured.
He was my knight in shining armor. I am sorry for wishing or agreeing to
kill his wife. Please forgive me and take me out of this captivity, " Beauty
prayed.
***
Timothy couldn't contain his joy. He could tell God was happy with him,
however, he had forgotten the follow-up prayer which he had to do after his
evangelism. After soul-winning, he would always pray for his converts for
them to grow and be established in the Lord. Most times he would pay
them courtesy visits once in a while, but this situation was different. He
didn't know who he had evangelized to. There was a witness in his heart
that someone got saved that night, but he didn't know who it was.
156
"God, I don't know who you saved tonight, but wherever he or she is,
comfort that person. Reveal yourself to him or her in a special way. Let him
or her be established in your kingdom in Jesus name."
Timothy's phone rang. It was his Evangelism student / partner from

Columbia calling. Mathew was a man he met online, Mathew had stumbled
on one of Timothy's posts on Evangelism. The post had interested Mathew.
Mathew started chatting Timothy up and from that moment on, they
became evangelism partners. Timothy trained Mathew on Evangelism and
Mathew started winning souls for the Lord in Columbia.
Mathew called Timothy thrice every week to report his progress, but that
day was different. Mathew had seen a revelation of Timothy going into a
Lion's den to bring out a lady.
After the usual pleasantries, Mathew went straight to the revelation

narrating what he had seen.
"That is great news, that means God has saved another soul through me or
God is going to. It may be a prophecy of what is coming ahead."
"Yes... I actually think it is a prophecy and I think we can start the work of
her deliverance by praying for her ahead so when you meet her, it would be
easy as God would have worked on her heart." Mathew said excitedly.
Timothy gave him a round of applause.
"You are a brilliant student," Timothy said laughing.
"I have a brilliant teacher," Mathew replied also laughing.
157
"So as the good student, how do we go about the intercession before soul
winning?"
"Well... I don't think my brilliant teacher has taught me about interceding

blindly. The type of intercession that precedes soul winning I was taught
had some form of information to work with. Whenever we wanted to
evangelize an environment, we would mention the name of the
environment in prayer, and if it was a person, we would mention the
person's name to God.
However, this situation is different; we don't know who we are praying for
or where he/she is from." Mathew stated.
"Same rule applies," Timothy replied.
"Ok then, let's get on with the assignment!"
***
Freeman had driven into the compound, the security man knew his face but
insisted on calling Winter. He dialed Winter's number but Winter was not
picking up.
Freeman dialed Remi's number instead.
"Hello Sir!"
"Hello Remi, please come over to the gate, the security is not letting me in."
158
"Right away sir!" Remi sped off to the gate. God had answered her prayer.
She stopped by Pamilerin's room but she wasn't there. She knew she would
be with Mrs. Winter. Remi did not have the luxury of time to stop by Mrs.
Winter's room.
Remi got to the gate and told the security that Freeman was Mrs.
Pamilerin's husband. The security allowed him in.
"Where is my wife?"
"She is in Mrs. Winter's room," Remi responded.

"Daddy, we need to leave here, Mrs. Winter is teaching mummy a lot of bad
things."
"That's why I am here."
Freeman walked towards Mrs. Winter's room. He was expecting to see

something less confusing but what he saw was terrible. He saw his wife
lying down naked in the bed with Mrs. Winter on top of her naked as well.
Freeman felt like he was going to run mad. Was his wife just having sex
with another woman?
***
Winter couldn't believe what had happened.. Freeman was not meant to see
that. Winter knew she had lost Freeman. The game was not going as
planned.

"Daddy! Daddy!" Freeman heard Venita's voice from afar. He could tell she
was running towards the room they were in. His fatherly instincts kicked in,
he got out of the room and shut the door behind him, he couldn't let his
daughter see the abomination her mother was committing.
On getting out, he saw Remi standing some meters away from the room .
Remi had a smile on her face but as soon as Remi saw his countenance, her
smile disappeared. Remi was not a child, she knew whatever he saw must
have been unpleasant. As Freeman left the door approaching Venita, Remi
walked towards the door and opened the door carefully. She almost passed
out seeing how her boss was rushing to wear her cloth, while Mrs. Winter
laid on the bed naked.
"Jesus!" Remi said in a whisper. She stepped back from the door panting.
***
Winter realized the game plan had changed unexpectedly. The ball was no
longer in her hands. Freeman had the ball now. Pamilerin would let guilt
take her back to Freeman and she would automatically be the enemy.
"No way!" Winter reasoned.
"Where are you going?"She asked.
"I messed up, nothing like this should have happened. I don't know what I
was thinking," Pamilerim said crying.
160
"Calm down Pamilerin, you didn't do anything wrong."
"Mrs. Winter, I have done everything wrong, my husband just caught me

sleeping with you! My God, what have I done?"
Winter rose from the bed and approached her.
"Hey, listen! You only followed your heart... Listen what just happened is
good, okay? This will prove if your husband really loves you. Let's see if he
is willing to fight for you, or with this, he will run back to his girlfriend.”
Winter said.
Pamilerin took a pause.
"Don't play the guilty one here, if you do, he will trample upon you. Tell
him, you decided to pay him back in his coin. For cheating on you, you
decided to cheat on him for him to see how it hurts. If he begs you and asks
for a second chance, you will know he still loves you and I promise to leave
you both, but if he doesn't do that, I am sorry, I won't let you go, because
Pamilerin I love you so much I will never leave you to suffer," Winter said
to Pamilerin
Pamilerin saw the logic in it and she embraced the idea.
She took a deep breath and walked out of the room.
****
Ajoke met the absence of Pamilerin and her family. She asked the security
man about their whereabouts. She knew Pamilerin and her family were
161
always around during the weekends. That was why she decided to come
unannounced. She had been having a strong negative feeling about
Pamilerin. She had been seeing a coffin in her dream repeatedly with
Pamilerin's name on it.
The security had given her a bombshell. He said Pamilerin and the children
had moved out of the house for over a week. He said Freeman was the only
one living in the house.
"You didn't ask why?" Ajoke asked.
"My boss has been hardly around as well, he only comes home to sleep and
when he comes in, he always has the tired look," he defended himself.
"He is coming back tonight right?"
"Yes!"
"Alright I will wait for him".
***
Dearest Mom, Maurine was on her way to Pamilerin's house. She had just
returned from her trip but instead of going home straight from the airport,
she asked the driver to take her to Pamilerin's home.
***
Timothy had told Mathew about his impromptu evangelism a few hours
earlier. Mathew was excited about it.
162
"I have a good feeling about this, what if the person you perceived was
saved today was the lady I saw you bringing out of the Lion's den," Mathew
questioned.
"Right!" Timothy agreed.
"So maybe we can be specific with the intercession. Let's pray that the
person that was saved this evening, may the Lord establish him/her, but I
have a strong feeling she is a she."
"Prophet Mathew!" Timothy teased.
"Tutored by Prophet Timothy!" Mathew replied laughing.
Timothy enjoyed listening to his Columbian accent.
"Alright, brother! We will go as the Lord leads us. Let us begin to bless the
name of our God for His timely intervention in the life of this convert..."
***
Freeman sat on the chair in the living room faking his smiles as his
daughters were playing with him. He watched as Pamilerin walked down
the stairs. He could tell the woman coming down the stairs was not his wife;
something had been tampered with.
"Mummy, Daddy said he is taking us with him," Theresa said cheerfully.
"Girls go and pack up your stuff and let's be on our way."
163
The girls hurried towards their rooms. Remi followed.
"I am not going with you!" Pamilerin said.
Freeman didn't look in her direction. She disgusted him.
"I said I am not going back with you!" Pamilerin repeated.
"I can't remember asking you to come with me... I am taking my kids."
"Oh! So the kids have been what has been keeping you with me? You want
to use this opportunity to take my kids and marry her! Never! My kids are
staying with me."
"You said what? You want my kids, my GIRLS to stay here and learn evil
from you, you want them to learn the despicable irritating lifestyle that
serpent of a woman has initiated you into. Never! I will fight you with the
last blood in me. It would do you good to let me take them in peace, or else
I will expose you everywhere.
Imagine what your daughters will think of you when they hear that you
started doing what you have preached against.
Lesbianism...Pamilerin...Was I that bad? That you decided to cheat on me
and you thought of doing it with a woman! Gosh! What do you think your
mother, I mean Mama Maurine will think of you?" Freeman said with so
much controlled anger.
Pamilerin stood in shame and indecision. She was about to kneel in apology
but she heard Winter's footsteps walking down the stairs. Followed was a
brief silence before Winter laid her hand on Pamilerin's shoulder.
164
"Let him take them, we will get them back, I promise you... I told you he
didn't love you anymore." Winter said.
"You are evil you know that?... Winter or whatever you are, I don't need
your evil money anymore. Pamilerin, it's a pity you let the devil come in
between us, this woman... this witch...did you know that she...." Freeman
was about blurting out that Winter asked him to marry her, but Venita
peeped from the room.
"Dad, please can you come up here and help me with my bags?"
Freeman took a deep breath and swallowed the rest of his words.
First things first, he needed to get his daughters out of that devil's hut.

Remi couldn't believe what had just happened. As she sat in the ride back
home, she kept wishing she was dreaming.
"How can mummy prefer to stay back with Mrs. Winter instead of going
with her children and husband?" Remi questioned within herself.
She also thought of what she imagined Freeman had seen his wife doing.
"How can she be committing immorality with that woman...I knew it, I said
that woman was a witch." she reasoned.
"Daddy, we can't leave mummy with that woman. She is a witch, she will
kill mummy," Remi blurted out suddenly in the car.
"Yes, Daddy... Mrs. Winter behaves like an evil person. I don't like her.
Please let's go back to pick mummy," Venita said as well.
"But, you were both there when she refused to follow us."
"She has been bewitched Daddy. I read in a book that once a person is
under the bewitchment of witches, they are no longer in charge of their
senses. Mummy is no more thinking like her usual self. We have to help
her." Remi said schooling Freeman.
166
"You are right Remi, but I am sure if you study further, you will realize you
can't use physical force on someone that has been bewitched. You can only
pray for them to be delivered from the bewitchment." Freeman stated.
"Will you pray for her?" Remi asked a very direct question. She had never
spoken with so much confidence and directness to her boss but she needed
to at this point.
Freeman did not answer because he wasn't sure he would do it. He was
emotionally shattered to say a word of prayer concerning anything.
"Daddy?" Venita said implying she was waiting for the answer to Remi's
question.
"I will," Freeman said.
"A promise is a debt," Juanita reminded.
They thought she had slept off, but she had been listening in on the
conversation all along.
"I promise," Freeman replied. He wanted his children to be happy, so he

was ready to lie to them. He knew Pamilerin was out of their lives forever
because he didn't think he would be able to stand sleeping with her on the
same bed after what he saw that evening. If the business investment pulled
through, he would relocate to Ghana, remarry and settle his family there.
He would only travel to Nigeria for his business dealings.
Freeman had seen the perfect future ahead.
167
***
"I don't know if what I am doing is right. I am leaving my family for you,"
Pamilerin said as she laid on Winter's laps in the living room.
"You will get back your daughters. Once we relocate, you will ask for
custody. Babe, we have some strong backing."
"What strong backing?"
"There is a group of strong black lesbians who support lesbians who leave
their husbands. They will set you up big time, help you get custody of your
children and if your husband is becoming too troublesome, they can take
him out of the way and recover all that he has for you. Pamilerin, you have a
good case. If we record a video and send it to them, firstly in one week they
would send you nothing less than fifty thousand dollars to start your life
again."
"Fifty thousand dollars? Why would they give me that?"
"You will say your husband caught you making out with your girlfriend and
he sent you out of the house, took your daughters from you and now you
are homeless and penniless."
"Oh!"
"Babe, that could even make them send for you, they would arrange your
visa to America. That way we can travel together."
"My daughters?"
168
"They have the best international lawyers."
"But the video will go viral, people will call me names... I won't be able to
show my face in public."
"No, who said anything about making the video public. The video is only for
the society. We will send it to their private mail."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes!"
"Give me some time to think about it," Pamilerin said.
"Your guardian you told me about, tell me more about her." Winter asked.
She needed to prepare Pamilerin against any intervention from that

quarter. Pamilerin spoke about her with so much reverence and Winter
perceived she was the kind of woman who could drag Pamilerin forcefully
back to her marriage.
"She such a wonderful woman. You know like I told you, I came into her
house as a maid, but she enrolled me in school and gave me education. "
"Private or Public school?"
"Public school," Pamilerin answered.
169
"Her kids? Public or Private?"
"Private school definitely!" Pamilerin said laughing. "In fact they went to
the best schools. "
"While she sent you to a public school, I don't like her, I mean if she really
wanted to help you, she should have sent you to the same schools her
children attended."
"Well, I thought about that back then but I waved it aside thanking God for
the average education I got. If I wasn't educated I wouldn‟t have met you,"
Pamilerin said laughing.
"True...True but I can assure you, even if I had met you as an illiterate, I
would have still married you anyway," Winter said.
Winter's phone rang. It was her husband calling. The caller ID showed "SH"
which was the short form for Sweetheart.
Pamilerin took the phone.
"SH... Sweetheart? Hmm? Who is this?" Pamilerin asked.
"SH? Sweetheart? Is that what SH means to you? For me it is "Stupid

Human Being". It is my dead husband's brother calling me. He is begging to
marry me after his brother's death," Winter said.
"Are you serious?" Pamilerin replied buying the lie.
170
"Yes, his name is Andrew. So ugly a man, let me see if I have one of his
pictures."
***
"Which course did she go for?" Ajoke could tell Freeman was telling her
lies. She could read it in Remi's eyes.
Remi wished she could tell Mama what was happening. She knew Ajoke
was not any better than Winter as regards diabolism, but Remi knew Ajoke
would go to the house and cause trouble. That trouble could bring
Pamilerin home.
Remi was about to open her mouth to say the truth but Freeman stared
hard at her.
On getting home, they had met Mama at the entrance of the house.
Freeman had quickly instructed the girls not to say a word about their
mother's whereabouts.
"Tell Grandma your mother went for a course."
"That would be lying," Venita said. Theresa and Juanita were asleep
already.
"It is important we do that for now. Remi take the girls to their room."
***
"Freeman, where is my daughter? Is my daughter dead?"
171
"No mama, she is not. You can call her number."
"She has blocked my number from calling her." Ajoke said.
"Oh!"
"I don't believe the story about her going for a course."
The sound of a car horn cut in between their conversation.
"Is that her?" Ajoke asked.
Freeman couldn't say a word. He was ready to cut off Pamilerin's head if
she stepped into the house.
Instead of answering Ajoke, he rushed out but on seeing the car blaring the
horn, he knew the day was far from been over.

Dearest Mom also did not buy the lie about the course.
"Freeman, look me in the eye and tell me your wife went on a course."
Maurine said in a cool tone yet firm.
"Ye...No..." Freeman stutterred
"Thank you. So where is she?"
"At a friend's place?" Freeman said but Remi coughed.
"Remi go to your room, Now!" Freeman said
" Grandmas , mummy is not with a friend, she is with a witch that wants to
scatter the family.." Remi said in a rush
"Remi ...Remi...Keep quiet" Freeman said charging towards her.
" Freeman... let her be..." Maurine said
"Remi, where is my daughter? " Ajoke asked rushing towards Remi...
***
Winter had the feeling she needed to get Pamilerin out of that house. She
knew if Freeman was smart, he would bring elders to the house very early
in the morning... Winter knew it was dangerous leaving in the morning.
Her game plan had changed. Now Pamilerin was the one being played not
Freeman. Her new game plan was simple. Get Pamilerin to kill Freeman
and when Pamilerin gets Freeman's money, she would swindle Pamilerin
and run back to Canada. Simple as ABC...
"Babe, Let's go have fun tonight..." Winter said. Her plan was for them to
escape for a few days. She had to trick Pamilerin into leaving the house.
173
"Fun ? Tonight? Where? By the pool?" Pamilerin asked very amused.
The word " Fun" made her heart jump in excitement. Marriage had made
her lose her sense of fun. Her years had been filled with serving Freeman
and the girls. There were times she suggested they travelled for a few days,
but she was always the person to pull down the suggestion because of the
money involved. Pamilerin didn't like spending money, she wanted to save
all the money she could get in the world. She came from a poor background
and she had sworn never to be poor.
"No, out of the house. I heard of this private beach house where a lot of
crazy fun things happen. Let's go have some crazy fun" Winter said in a
tempting way
"Ok, that sounds nice but what if I see someone who knows me there."
Pamilerin said
"I can assure you no one that lives like you will be there..." Winter said
"Entrance fee is 500k per couple."
"Five hundred thousand Naira for a night ?" Pamilerin was beyond amazed
"Yes..."
"What's happening there that will make them take Five hundred thousand
naira from me?" Pamilerin said.
"Let's get there first..." Winter pressed giggling like a child.
Pamilerin's phone rang, it was Dearest Mom calling...
"Talk about the angel. The woman we were talking about just now is calling
..." Pamilerin said.
"Angelic devil you mean!" Winter said.
Pamilerin laughed...
174
Pamilerin was about picking up, when Winter took the phone from her.
Unknown to Pamilerin, Winter intentionally received the call and placed
the phone faced down on the table...
"Babe, what are you planning to do, pick her call? You want to spoil our
evening..." Winter asked.
"No, I guess she is back and wants to check on me." Pamilerin replied
"Or you want to know what she got for you from abroad?" Winter teased
"Buy something for me? That would be in my dreams...Dearest Mom can be

selfish when it comes to buying things from overseas"
"Really?"
"Yeah, like we were saying the other time, just like she sent her kids to
private schools and I had to go to a public schools, the same way she hardly
bought me things from abroad. Most times, I got lucky when what she
bought for her daughters didn't fit them well..."
"See!"
***
Dearest Mom couldn't believe what she was hearing over the phone... She
had her eyes wide opened in shock. Her heart raced the fastest it had in
years.
She picked up her bag, stood up and walked out of the living room into her
car. Freeman wondered what was happening...
"Mom! What's wrong?"
Dearest Mom looked up at Freeman with tears in her eyes...
"So despite everything I did for your wife, to her it wasn't enough... Jerry,
let's go home" she said turning to face her driver.
175
"Mama, what is it, what did she say ?" Ajoke said in a pleading voice...
Maurine did not give any response but sobbed like a baby as Jerry drove off...
***
Winter went to where the phone was. She saw that Maurine had not ended
the call... Winter smiled knowing she had achieved her purpose and ended
the call.
Winter quickly sent a text...
"Thank you ma for all you ever did for me, though it was second best to
what you gave your daughters. I still appreciate it. I hope to repay you
financially someday for every dime you spent on me. Please do not call me
again. I am happy to be free from you forever..."
- Pamilerin
Winter sent the text, deleted it from the sent folder. She blocked the
number from calling Pamilerin.
***
Dearest Mom received the text...
She read the text over 10 times, at first the text broke her heart, but at some
point she suspected something was off. The text didn't have the usual tone
of Pamilerin's text. She didn't use any emoji.
" Maybe she told her friend to send the message... I heard her voice saying
terrible things about me." Maurine resolved in her heart.
***
After Maurine left, Ajoke was not planning to hold her peace...
"Take me to where she is tonight!"
"Mummy, it has to wait till morning. The place is two or three hours from
here"
176
"It doesn't matter, I must get to my daughter tonight. What if she dies
before morning"
"All the better..." Freeman said under his breath
"What did you say?" Ajoke said holding Freeman's shirt collar...
"Mummy, I said all the better" Freeman said raising his voice. It was
obvious he had lost it. All his pent up emotions were about to explode ..
"Mummy, it is better she dies than what she is doing now.

Mummy, Pamilerin is sleeping with a woman." Freeman said with tears
flowing down his face...
Ajoke stepped back in shock...
"God forbid!"
"Yes! God Forbid!"
"With the witch? "
"Yes..."
"Ha! Pamilerin has killed me, the woman wants to take her Glory and kill
her, that is what some high level witches do...Ha! Freeman you must take
me there now, please."
"Mummy, please I can't drive there tonight. I am exhausted...I drove there

this evening and drove back again. I can imagine what my blood pressure
would be reading now... I am sorry mummy, I can't take you there, but I can
give you the address, and get you a taxi if they will be willing to go that
route by this time..."
"Ok, get me a taxi " Ajoke was resolute and unswerving. She was going to
face the witch that night.
Freeman on the other hand had thought Ajoke would agree to go the next
morning, but he could tell there was no stopping her. A part of him wanted
177
to see Pamilerin again and beg her to come home, but the other part of him
was still very angry at her...
Love however conquered...
"Let me take you there..." Freeman said to Ajoke...

Freeman and Ajoke got to the house at fifteen minutes to 12 midnight. The
security told them they had met Pamilerin's absence.
"It seems they went for a night party. My madam said they won't be coming
back this night." The security guard said.
Freeman's hope crashed.
Ajoke was not having it...
"No problem, I will stay here till they return..."
Freeman went into his car and broke down in tears.
"Pamilerin what happened? Is it possible to change in less than a month?

God, what happened to my wife?"
***
Winter and Pamilerin arrived at the beach house. It was hell in terms of
profanity. Pamilerin was blown away by the life there. It felt like she had
been in a cage all her life. The aura of sex, alcoholism, drugs was so inviting
Pamilerin wanted to have a taste of everything happening there...
They had changed into their bikinis... Winter had teased Pamilerin about
her belly fat, promising her she was going to pay for a tummy tuck surgery
for her once they relocated.
Winter however, was watching the events happening at her home. She was
viewing her house on her phone. The CCTV that had been installed in the
house was capturing Ajoke and Freeman's activities which she could access
via her phone.
Winter suspected the woman with Freeman to be Dearest Mom.
179
"But despite what she heard and read, she still came looking for her? Stupid
husband came with her as well." Winter said smiling mischievously
Winter was beginning to enjoy the game. She was no longer doing this for
the money alone. She was beginning to see it as fun.
"Hey Mrs Winter! Come on" Pamilerin called out to her.
Winter kept her phone in her purse.
"Can we stop the Mrs Winter, call me babe or Winter. At least for the few
days we will be staying here" Winter whispered into Pamilerin's ear.
Pamilerin smiled on hearing the first part of the statement but her smile
disappeared when she heard the part about staying at the beach house for
more days...
"Staying here for more days? I thought we were leaving in the morning?"
"Well, my thoughts initially but seeing the way you are having the fun of
your life, I have decided to spoil you silly." Winter said laughing and
dancing to the hip hop music playing in the background...
The logical thinking Pamilerin kicked in...
"No, it doesn't make sense to spend 500 thousand Naira a day for how
many days more, when you just bought a house worth millions...No, I don't
like wasteful spending" Pamilerin said with a straight face.
"Wow... my baby has got some fire... I like this fierce you, I am guessing you
will be the husband in this relationship...!" Winter said trying to water
down the situation...
Pamilerin raised her left eyebrow meaning she was still waiting for Winter's
response.
"You look beautiful, when you are angry...I know that is cliché, but I am
really serious..." Winter said while buying enough time to think of her next
move...
180
"Mrs.... I mean Winter... you are swerving away from the conversation...Are
we leaving here in the morning?" Pamilerin asked with a stern look.
"Yes sir!" Winter replied.
"I am not a Sir!" Pamilerin said smiling.
"You are..." Winter said and without any warning, she pushed Pamilerin
into the pool, where some men were.
"Have fun with your kind" Winter said running off.
The men in the pool joined in the game and pulled Pamilerin. They
approached her like lions who just found their prey.
"Winter! Winter! Hey don't leave me" Pamilerin screamed as she had
started feeling the men touching different sensitive parts of her body...
Winter did not pay heed to her call. She wanted some "alone time" to
think...
***
Beauty had an inner peace she couldn't explain. She wondered what the
cause of her sudden happiness was. She suspected it had something to do
with the message from the preacher. Even Lara her pregnant roommate felt
it...
"You seem relaxed today!" Lara said suddenly
"You are not asleep" Beauty replied. "This should be midnight already "
"Yes, I am unable to sleep. I have been having this funny feeling all day, like
I want to do the major, like poo...but each time I go to the rest room,
nothing comes out."
"Really, maybe you are constipated, you should see the doctor tomorrow. "
"Doctor? Which doctor?" Lara laughed.

181
"You could tell your antenatal doctor" Beauty replied.
"Since you got here, when did you ever see me step out of this house?" Lara
asked.
"Well, as it is, I really can't see" Beauty replied on a lighter mood.
"I am sorry" Lara apologized. It wasn't her intention to insult Beauty.
"Nah... Don‟t sweat over nothing. I know you didn't mean it in a bad way
but seriously speaking you have not been attending antenatal?" Beauty
asked as she rose to a sitting position at the sudden realization that Lara
had not been out of that compound in months.
"So who is going to take your delivery?" Beauty asked.
"You!" Lara replied.
For the first time in weeks, Beauty laughed out loud...
"You are joking right?"
"Yes… I am kidding..." Lara laughed as well. "You should have seen your
expression... Don't be afraid, it's either Baba Shagba himself or Chigozie."
"My Goodness ... Is that how it is been done around?"
"Yep... I was told most of the kids that run around in the compound were
delivered here." Lara replied.
"I hope they will do a good job." Beauty said.
"That's not my concern, my concern is the fear that they may pound my
child. " Lara said softly.
"Pound your child? What's that?"
182
"When any of the wives gives birth, the baby will face the gods and the gods
will decide whether the child will be pounded for rituals or the mother will
keep the child." Lara answered.
Beauty couldn't believe what she just heard...
"What!"

Beauty could not return to sleep. She had embraced Lara to sleep.
"Pound a baby for charm?" Beauty couldn't get the words out of her mind.
At that point, she questioned if she truly knew the identity of Winter.
Winter was a friend she met after Secondary School. Beauty had run away
from her grandmother's home. She met Winter through a friend on the
street. Winter who was older than she was housed her and before long they
became like sisters. However, Winter decided to seek greener pastures by
travelling to Italy for prostitution. For those years, they lost contact.
Beauty found a way of contacting her parents, she told them she wasn‟t
interested in joining them overseas, she only wanted them to get her an
accommodation and put her through University. They consented.
After Beauty graduated from the University, Winter resurfaced only to tell
her she had been married to a Jamaican and the man died leaving her a lot
of money. Winter had stayed some months with her before relocating to
Canada, where she married another man.
Beauty thought she knew all about Winter's scheming ways but she was
realizing she never knew Winter at all. She didn't know Winter was
involved with men like Baba Shagba who pounded Babies for charm.
"God, please deliver me and Lara from this Captivity. Please don't let Lara
give birth for slaughter" Beauty prayed....
***
Pamilerin felt raped, the men in the pool had done a lot of irritating things
to her in the pool. She had been looking for Winter for close to fifteen
minutes. Sudden fear gripped her heart.
"What If she has left me here?" Pamilerin thought fearfully.

184
Pamilerin passed by a group of men and women taking hard drugs...
"Pamilerin, what are you doing here?" She said out loud to herself.
"Pamilerin...you are falling..." She said to herself again.
Pamilerin began to feel the burning sensation on her leg again. She thought
the leg pain had gone after she had applied the balm Winter got for her
alongside the love portion she put in Freeman's food.
"I believe the charm and balm was a scam. Too many online scammers"
Pamilerin thought as she started limping.
"Winter! Winter!" Pamilerin started shouting...
"Hey keep it down and look around quietly for your chic..." A man made fun
of Pamilerin...
***
Winter heard Pamilerin's voice from a distance...
She quickly emptied the substance she had bought into Pamilerin's wine...
Winter wanted something that would knock her out for days...
She had bought two wraps of a new substance in town called " Leary". The
dealer at the beach house assured her one wrap would knock a lady out for
over 12 hours. She told Winter, it was what boys who wanted to gang rape
girls and didn't want the girl to remember the incident used on their
victims.
Winter had asked for two wraps...
"Hey! you! So how was the time with the boys? Fierce right?"
"Dirty you mean. Winter, I need to get out of here. I guess I am beginning
to overdo this thing. I am a Christian and these are some of the things I
have preached against. The thing we did, I am still trying to forgive myself
for it, now this! I can't deal anymore..." Pamilerin said.
185
" Ok… fine... I am sorry. Since we have paid for the night, Let's go sleep in
for the night" Winter said...
***
Freeman kept hoping Pamilerin would return, but the clock kept ticking
away.
Ajoke couldn't make out sense from what was happening, but she was sure
of one thing; she was not leaving until she saw her daughter.
***
Maurine laid on the bed with her husband. She couldn't sleep as well. The
content of the text kept playing back in her head.
"Can Pamilerin be this ungrateful and insulting?" She asked herself

repeatedly.
***
Winter had given Pamilerin the sedated wine, which Pamilerin took down
her throat in one gulp.
They were laying on the bed, holding hands and looking at the ceiling.
"I feel like my body is elevated from the bed." Pamilerin said. The hard
drug was beginning to get into her blood.
"I can see horses." She said with so much excitement. "I want to run fast
like the horses"
Winter had been warned by the drug dealer, that the first effect of the drug
was that it would make the victim extremely excited, but after five minutes
of letting out that energy, they would collapse and fall asleep.
That was exactly the case, Pamilerin ran round the beach house, kissing
every young man, she started dancing like a stripper for some men. Winter
made sure she captured the moment on video. After about seven
minutes, she fell asleep.
186
Winter asked some men to help her lift Pamilerin to the room.
On setting Pamilerin on the bed, she decided to execute the other part of
the plan for the night...
"You can do whatever you want to do with her... she asked me to get men to
sleep with her, when she passes out..." Winter said.
The guys exchanged looks..
They saw no big deal in it as it was a free ride...
The two men defiled Pamilerin's body. They show her body no respect...
***
At that same moment, Freeman felt his body vibrating, sudden fever took
over his body. He started sweating profusely. He could tell something was
going on with Pamilerin. He started sobbing like he was mourning
Pamilerin. A sudden feeling of loss took over him.
***
Winter had recorded the whole scenario. She forwarded it to Freeman's
email.
Winter watched from her phone for Freeman's reaction. It was Epic! Winter
laughed so hard, she cried...
"I am not happy! Why should anyone be" Winter said sobbing....

Freeman heard the email notification beep on his phone. He took his
phone. It was the email address of the person who asked to meet him weeks
back. The investor he was meant to meet when he met Winter instead.
He opened the mail and it read...
“She is no more interested in you, Move on.. The attached video says it all.
Ps: It would do you good to watch the video alone.
W”
“W?” Freeman wondered
“Winter?” Freeman couldn't believe he had been played from the start. He
suddenly realized Winter was the one who invited him for the meeting and
yet pretended to be just another guest.
“Witch! God punish you!” Freeman cursed ...
Freeman decided to see what was in the video. He was expecting a video
where Pamilerin was going to tell him, she was no more interested, but
what he never expected to see in his life stared him in the face...
188
From when Pamilerin was behaving like a stripper and kissing random men
to when two different men were whoring her body.
Freeman got down from his car grabbing his chest tight. It felt like a rope
had been used to tie his heart. He wished he could remove his heart and
throw it away. He felt like dying. How could any man, no two men lay their
hands on his wife. Since they got married, he was the first and only man in
Pamilerin's life.
He paced around the street like a mad man and he started screaming. He
couldn't hold back his tears and scream.
Ajoke rushed towards him, Neighbors started opening their curtains

wondering what was happening...
Ajoke wondered what had gone wrong. She looked into the car and saw
Freeman's phone. She noticed a paused video.
Ajoke played the video and she could only watch thirty seconds of the video
before she broke down in tears....
***
Freeman knew he wasn't the one driving the car back home.
The community security had showed up about five minutes after he started
screaming. The Neighbors had put a call through to the chairman of the
street, who called in the necessary officers.
189
They had insisted Freeman and Ajoke leave the vicinity before they called in
the police...
Ajoke regained herself quickly unlike Freeman who had become dumb
struck. Ajoke knew what was happening to her daughter was more than
what met the ordinary eye.
“Freeman, let us leave.” Ajoke had said to Freeman.
Ajoke had pushed Freeman into the car. Freeman sat in like a zombie.
“Freeman, be a man and start the car!” Ajoke said
Freeman's hands shook as he managed to turn the ignition.
“We will settle this score...” Ajoke kept saying out loud as Freeman drove
away from Winter's house.
“If the woman thinks she is a witch, I will let her know I am a greater witch
and no witch can eat the child of a senior witch.” Ajoke boasted in the car as
Freeman drove off the slowest he had ever driven since he got his driver's
license...
***
Venita woke up. She saw her sisters sleeping by her side. She knew the last
she remembered was waiting for her Dad and Grandma to bring back her
mum. She had been waiting in the living room with Remi.
190
She ran off to the living room. Remi laid on the chair with her eyes wide
open...
“You carried me in?” Venita asked.
“You slept off.” Remi replied.
“Dozed off, Aunty Remi, I dozed off...They are not back?”
“Not yet!”
“Will Mummy come with them?”
“Not sure...”
“Aunty Remi, can we pray for mummy... The thing you said about
bewitchment, can we pray. I remember this memory verse.
“There shall be no bewitchment against Jacob, neither any enchantment

against Isreal” I can't really remember it well... Let's pray that God should
stop any bewitchment or enchantment Mrs Winter has put on Mummy...:”
Venita said.
“ Ok..., but it is there shall be no enchantment and divination against Jacob

and Isreal.” Remi said
***
“Drop me off here!” Ajoke said suddenly.
191
“What?” Freeman managed to say.
“There is no point going home with you. I have serious business to carry out
in the village...”
“But this is 3:22am, no bus will move at this time...”
“I want to catch the first bus. The first bus will move by 5am.”
“This place will be too dangerous for you to stay alone...”
“Freeman, don't worry I will be fine. Go home, your children will be

worried. Don't worry, I promise you, your wife is coming back to you. The
witch has put a spell on her, I have people who will take the spell away.”
Freeman nodded. He wasn't sure he wanted Pamilerin back. Not only had a
woman slept with her, two men had also made a mess of her body. The
images flashed through his mind. He had never rough handled Pamilerin
the way the men did. They treated her like a whore...
“Ok ma...” Freeman said as he pulled up.
“You should see me in few days from now. I may need to carry some
sacrifices... Don't worry, Pamilerin is a big bone that dog cannot swallow.”
Ajoke boasted once more.
192
***
Lara started groaning in pain. Beauty had slept off, but Lara's painful
grunts woke her up...
“Lara, are you okay?” Beauty asked searching for her hand in the dark...
“My stomach feels as hard as a rock and the pain I am feeling is unusual. I
can't even get up. Can you help call Chigozie? Her room is the third room to
the left of our room.”
Beauty stood up, she found the wall, she followed the path of the wall to the
entrance. She opened the door and got out of the room quietly. She didn't
want Baba Shagba to take the delivery.
Carefully, she got to the room Lara had told her Chigozie was...
“Aunty Chigozie!!!” Beauty whispered with caution. As she had learnt while
living with her grandmother that most people you meet in a territory
demand a certain level of respect from every newcomer even if they were
younger than you.
Beauty knocked softly on the door...
“ Aunty Chigozie, Please Lara needs your attention.” Beauty said quietly...
The door opened and a familiar offensive smell oozed at her.
Baba Shagba!
To be continued…

“What is it?” He roared.
It was obvious Beauty had interrupted whatever he was doing inside.
“La... Lara.. needs Aunty Chigozie “ Beauty stuttered in fear.
“Why?” Baba Shagba roared again.
“I think the baby, she said her stomach feels hard.”
“Contractions...” Chigozie said from inside...
Chigozie rushed out of the room. Beauty felt someone run past her. She also
noticed Baba Shagba's smell was moving far away from her. Beauty could
tell they were going to her room in haste.
Beauty found the wall and traced her way back to the room...
“You are not useful here... Stay outside” Chigozie ordered, after which she
barked out the names of the other two wives.
Beauty heard their approaching footsteps...
194
She tried to move away from the passage so they wouldn't collide with her.
“Come sit here ma!” Beauty felt the teenage hand of one of the girls in the
house. She took Beauty by the hand and guided her to a large stone.
“Is she about to have her baby?” Beauty asked the teenage girl.
“I think so!”
“Ok, What's your name?”
“Yewande. I am the daughter of the second wife”
“Oh!”
“Can you stay with me here and be my eyes?” Beauty asked.
“Ok ma” Yewande sat beside her on the stone.
“She is really young and Beautiful, I wonder what made her stoop so low to
marrying my father!” Yewande said.
“I don't know, you should have the answer to that!” Beauty replied forcing a
friendly smile.
195
“My mother told me she was charmed and funny enough I think my mother
doesn't know who really has been charmed. If anyone has been charmed in
this house, it is my mother, how can you study abroad and you came to
Nigeria on research and somehow during that research, you met my father
who you said you suddenly fell in love with... Arrhggg...” Yewande said.
Beauty could hear bitterness, anger, disappointment in the voice of the

young girl.
“Imagine her entire family lives in Wisconsin and we are living in this dirty
place.”
“People do crazy things for love, I am a living witness to that.” Beauty

replied.
Yewande looked at Beauty very bewildered. What her mother had told her
was that she was blind and her father was trying to cure her blindness…
“You also fell In love with my father?” Yewande asked.
“Nooooo! Never! my story is quite complicated but long and short is; I
stupidly fell in love with a married man and out of revenge, his wife made
me blind or so I thought because now I don't really know what the truth is,
because I think my best friend set me up with your dad.” Beauty decided to
pause on giving too much information.
196
“Hmmm, well it's really complicated. People do crazy things for love. Well,
maybe my mother was not charmed after all, she was just unfortunate as to
where love took her to. Well then I hope love takes me to a big castle and a
better life...” Yewande said laughing.
“Amen!”
“You are a Christian?”
“Well, kind of. I used to go to church in my early days with my

grandmother, but after I left her, I kind of left God, but now, my challenge
is pushing me back to Him.”
“Hmmm, I like you...”
“Really? Thank you... I like you too”
“I attend the Christian fellowship in school, but my father and mother

doesn't know. Only my younger brother knows. But it's our little secret. I
keep his secret, he keeps mine. He has two girlfriends.” Yewande said
laughing.
“Wow, that's a big secret to keep” Beauty replied laughing. It felt so good
having a conversation with a teenager.
“I will pray for you on Wednesday, when I attend the school fellowship”
197
“Aww...thank you so much.” Beauty's eyes dropped a few tears.
“My mother ooo!” The duo heard the loud cry of Lara .
“Open your leg and push, the baby's head is just here” Beauty strained her
ear and heard Chigozie say loudly.
“Push! Push!”
Beauty could feel her hand trembling.
“God please help her pull through!” Beauty prayed silently.
Yewande held her hand and wove her fingers with hers.
“ She will be fine!” Yewande assured her.
***
The sound of the baby's cry was a beautiful one. Beauty had mixed
emotions. She was happy the baby had been born successfully, but she
hated the fact the baby was born into that family.
Beauty heard the cry of the baby becoming louder. She could tell someone
was drawing closer to her.
198
“You, what are you doing there, go back to bed.” Baba Shagba said to
Yewande.
Yewande ran off...
Beauty was using her senses to determine what was happening...
She heard the quiet sob of Lara. Simultaneously, the baby was crying...
Beauty strained her ear.
“It's a boy!” Chigozie said.
“I thank my stars.” Baba Shagba said...
“Three of you, you can leave” Baba Shagba said
Beauty wondered who were the three.
She sensed the people passed by her. The Smell was familiar.
“The boy will be killed.” One of the women said in what sounded like a
whisper.
“He is such a handsome baby” the other person answered.
Beauty felt her heart pounding...

199
“Was Lara really serious about them pounding her baby? “
“No, they can't do that!” Beauty thought.
Beauty stood up trying to follow the sound of the baby's cry. She didn't
know what she was going to do, but she had to stop the death of the
newborn.
“This is cool money. Call Chief that the container has landed...” Beauty
heard Chigozie say.
“Right away” Baba Shagba said.
Baba Shagba got out of the room colliding into Beauty.
“Can't you find somewhere to sit..” Baba Shagba said angrily without
stopping. He had something more important to deal with than Beauty.
Beauty moved towards where Baba Shagba had come out.
“Aunty Chigozie!” Beauty said
“ Ehn, What is it? You shouldn't be here. When we are through with her,
and the children have cleaned up this place, I will send for you..”
200
“Please, Is it true, you are going to kill the Baby?” Beauty said with Shaky
lips.
Beauty heard silence as a reply and like a fast moving wind, Chigozie rushed
towards her.
“I believe you don't want to end up blind and dumb. Keep your mouth shut
about the things you hear here or you will have double calamity to deal
with.”
Beauty swallowed her saliva as her mouth felt dry all of sudden.
“How much are they willing to pay for the child's life, I am ready to pay for
it. Please don't kill the baby.”
Chigozie looked interested, she was not one to joke with money.
“How much can you pay for the child?” Chigozie asked.
“How much is the person willing to pay,” Beauty asked.
“ N500k” Chigozie lied as the actual money was 200k.
“Tell Baba Shagba, I will pay him double of that if he can release the baby.”
“And where do you plan on getting this money?”

201
“I have it in my bank account. My phone is with Baba Shagba. If I can

access it, I will transfer the money”
Chigozie loved the new angle to things. Chigozie pulled Beauty aside.
“ Here is the thing, this has to stay between us, I will find a way to convince
Baba Shagba not to kill the Baby, but he must not know about you buying
the life of the baby.” Chigozie said.
Beauty could sense something deceitful in Chigozie's words, but life was a
risk and she was willing to risk her money to save the boy's life...

From where Lara laid weakly on the bed, she wished she could tell Beauty
not to fall for whatever Chigozie was whispering into her ears. Lara knew
the Baby was going to be used for rituals.
She had heard the communication between Baba Shagba and Chigozie as
soon as she birthed the child...
“Seven stars..." Baba Shagba had said
“Jackpot!" Chigozie replied " Who would appreciate it more?"
"Chief Ega. but what is the sex?..."
“It‟s a boy!"
"I thank my stars" Baba Shagba said
"This is cool money, call Chief that the container has landed"
Lara knew they were going to pound the boy for some kind of charm for
Chief.
" Bea...Beaut...Beauty..." Lara called
203
"Yes..." Beauty answered sharply
"Let them do what they want to do" Lara said. She had two reasons. First,
she wanted to rid herself of caring for a child by Baba Shagba. She knew she
was in a cage, and there was no way out. Taking care of a child in a cage
didn't look good.
Secondly, she didn't want Beauty losing her life trying to defend her.
"No...Lara...we will save your baby..." Beauty tried to find Lara.
"What is happening here?" Baba Shagba's voice sent shivers down her
spine. Ever since he raped her, his presence was always fearful to her.
Chigozie quickly took him out...
******
Baba Shagba came back with Chigozie
"How do we get the money?" He said
Beauty realized Chigozie must have let him in on the exchange.
"I can transfer the money if you get me my phone. Lara will help me with
the transfer, I will use my fingerprint to access it"
204
Chigozie and Baba exchanged looks. Baba Shagba went into his room to get
the phone.
Lara had heard Beauty saying something about money and she helping her
with it.
Lara wished Chigozie could leave the room for few minutes, so she could
tell Beauty not to do any business with Chigozie. Chigozie was sly.
"Beauty...what are you planning to buy?" Lara said stylishly...
Beauty followed the voice to find her ear and whispered in her ear.
"I am paying for your child not to be killed " Beauty said
"No, they will still kill him" Lara replied in a rush.
"No, they won't...I am giving them a million Naira. I believe your son will be
a great man. Who knows maybe my coming here was to save him"
"Here is the phone..." Baba Shagba said on entering the phone.
"Lara, please take the phone and look for Quantum Bank App...Click on it
and I will put my fingerprint for the access..."
Lara wanted to tell her not to do it, but the way Chigozie and Baba Shagba
stared at her told her not to try anything odd.
205
Lara still needed to help Beauty...
"My eyes are blurry..." Lara said
Lara faked passing out....
"Lara! " Chigozie shouted
Beauty knew something had gone wrong...
"What is wrong! Lara! Lara...Aunt Chigozie, what is wrong with her? Why is
she not saying anything?"
Baba Shagba rushed to her side chanting.... He pushed Beauty away from
Lara, Chigozie held Beauty so she wouldn't fall...
"She has passed out, you should not have told her to help you. She just gave
birth and needs enough rest. You should have given it to me to help you,
but I guess you don't trust me"
" I didn't want to bother you!" Beauty replied
"Let me help you with it..."
*******
"What do you mean I only have N5,324 only in my account..." Beauty said
raising her voice
206
"That's what is here..." Chigozie said with Irritation in her voice
"No, I should have nothing less than....Wait! Hold on please check the last
transactions.." Beauty said
Chigozie checked it, large sum of money had been moved from Beauty's
account to a Winter Grayson.
" You recently transferred all your money to a Winter Grayson"
Beauty felt her eyes turning despite being blind...Her knees

buckled...Beauty remembered few times Winter had helped her to make
some transfers, like when she transferred the N1.2 million to Baba Shagba.
"She has duped me..." Beauty fell on the floor crying uncontrollably... "She's
taken everything I have...Why? God, why does everyone leave me? and
when they do, they leave me shattered...."
Lara could hear Beauty's cry from a distance, but she knew she couldn't
snap out of her fake coma... Baba Shagba left her in a hurry towards Beauty
and Chigozie.
“What is it?"
"It seems your Madam Winter has swallowed all her money...and that
gives me the feeling that she came to dump her here for you."
Baba Shagba paused on the spot...
207
"What do you mean?"
********
“Lord, intervene in this matter...Lord, We need your timely intervention in
our family" That was the Prayer point Remi told Venita they had to pray...
“Venita, all that is happening is beyond us, I don't even understand what to
pray or how to pray about what is happening ..." Remi said to Venita. Remi
didn't see Pamilerin as her boss, she saw her as the angel who brought her
from the village where she had no hope, to a life where she had a future.
Soon she would be going into the university...Something no one in her
family had achieved.
This was the time to repay her kindness and the only she knew how to, was
to pray for her... She encouraged herself.
"Father, in the name of Jesus we pray for your timely intervention. We

don't have time on our hands. Mrs. Winter could destroy a lot of things in
few hours from now." Venita also prayed.

“Go there Again!” Timothy heard as he was preparing to go to work that

morning.
“Go where?”
“There!”
Timothy immediately perceived where God asked him to go was where he

went the day before.
“Continue the work you started”
“Ok sir!” Timothy said excitedly.
He knew Soul winning was the heartbeat of God. He knew something big
was coming for him after this...
“At your service, My Lord” Timothy said grinning.
His phone rang.
209
It was his fiancée calling... Justina.
“Hey, Son of the Most High...What sup...Good Morning”
“Daughter of the Most High, how are you?”
“Great, I had a beautiful dream about you...”
“Oh Really? I hope it has to do with our wedding date. Tell me, Daddy has
told you the date...”
“Noooo!” Justina said laughing her heart out... “On the contrary, it was a
Spiritual dream”
“Hmmm...that sounds deep.” Timothy said.
“It is really deep... as in very deep... I saw you going to the river, and you
fished out a big fish...Very big Fish.”
“Hmm, a big fish...” Timothy echoed. Timothy knew what the revelation
meant. He knew he was a Fisher of men. It meant he had won a big soul for
the Lord. Timothy suspected it had to do with where God was telling him to
go to again..
“Let me fill you in on what happened to me yesterday” Timothy said to

Justina as he wanted to share with her what her dream meant...

***
Pamilerin found herself in a strange place. The place looked unlike earth.
The beings there were almost shaped like humans, but one could tell they
were not humans..
Pamilerin felt like she was floating...
The beings noticed her presence and started looking at her strangely.
“What am I doing here? Where is this place?” Pamilerin said within
Suddenly a giant like creature was walking towards her...
***
“ Kulen bo.” The man said.
Pamilerin wasn't familiar with their language but she could tell what they
were saying. It felt like there was an automatic translating device in her
head. “Kulen bo” meant “Sieze her”...
Pamilerin was bundled by three strange looking creatures. They took her by
the hand and what felt like a wind transportation, Pamilerin found herself
and the strange men in a tree like prison.
211
Pamilerin looked around, there were lots of trees around and people were
trapped in the trees.
“ Mikobin ne fe ge kulawa, makubiyin kulawa” one of the beings said.
Pamilerin understood their words to mean..
“ You people want to be high, stay high there...”
Pamilerin did not understand what they meant by wanting to be high...
The creatures left, but there were still creatures acting as security men
around.
“Where is this place, my God!” Pamilerin said trying to break free from the
tree prison but the branches had been woven so tightly together.
“You speak English?” A man said from another tree prison.

PART 37

Ajoke got to the Village as early as the Word “Early” meant in her
hometown. The farmers were going to their farm and the local food sellers
were cooking the food for the day…
“Mama Pamilerin, did your daughter send you away?” Iya Rolake mocked
Ajoke. She was Ajoke‟s sworn enemy and she was not discrete about it. The
reason was obvious, the two had been best of friends and they both had
sent their daughters to the city to be maids. Pamilerin concentrated on her
purpose of being a maid, but Rolake came back home with a pregnancy. She
had seduced her boss‟ husband, who denied her pregnancy when everything
came out in the open.
Ajoke started blowing her daughter‟s trumpet in the village as a disciplined

child.
Iya Rolake hence made it a duty to always taunt Ajoke at every given
opportunity.
“One would have thought, with the disciplined child you have, you won‟t
live in this village again, but behold, you are still struggling to share the
village with us, and even when you want to rub it in our faces that you have
a child in the city, you don‟t even spend two days there before they send you
away. At least, we are not trying to live a fake life.” Iya Rolake said out loud
as Ajoke past her house.
“You are going there again… Juju woman” Iya Rolake said as she noticed
Ajoke going to her Herbalist friend‟s house instead of entering her house.
213
Ajoke was not in the mood for any fight, she had more serious issues to deal
with
***
“Ajoke, your daughter has eaten a love portion.” The herbalist told Ajoke.
“What do you mean?”
“Go dip your hands in that pot, wipe your face with the water from the pot.”
He instructed Ajoke.
Ajoke did as she was told.
“Look into the mirror and see what happened.”
Ajoke fixed her gaze into the Mirror and saw Winter making a call to Baba
Shagba.
“I need you to prepare me two portions, the portions are to be used on the
man. The first portion, should make him hate his wife with all passion.
While the second portion should make him love me.” Winter had said.
“When the portion is ready, let it be well packaged. I will send you a
package you will use. I want it to look like a company product. Thereafter,
you send it through a dispatch rider.”
Ajoke watched as Pamilerin received the package. She kept in a very hidden
place in the Kitchen.
214
Some hours later, Pamilerin had poured the first portion of hate in the food,
but as she was about to put in the second portion of love in the meal, it fell
from her shaky hands, when she heard Remi approaching. Pamilerin‟s
finger had mistakenly touched a part of the love portion, coincidentally, she
put her finger in her mouth as a sign of regret of the accident.
Unknowingly, her tongue had contacted the love portion on the tip of her
finger.”
“My God!” Ajoke shouted.
“Which of the gods are you calling?” Aremu, the herbalist teased her.
“Any of the gods that can save me now”
“I am sorry Ajoke, none of the gods can save you now. Unless your daughter
takes the antidote, that is the only way she can be free. I don‟t know what
kind of portion she used or the ingredients used in preparing it, if I know
the ingredients, I may be able to find the antidote to counter what has been
done.”
“Find out through the Mirror, what the herbalist used.”
“You can‟t access another Herbalist‟s secret room. He would have covered
his Secret room with dark curtains. If it was easy to access other Herbalist‟s
room, herbalists would have been killing themselves. Once you know a
man‟s secret, or his room of power, you have brought that man down”
Aremu said
“So, what are you saying?”
215
“As your friend, do you want to know the truth?” Aremu asked frankly
Ajoke nodded in the affirmative
“Cases like this can only be solved by the INVISIBLE GOD, who is the
IRREVERSIBLE REVERSER, only Him can reverse this. You know what I
mean Right? Go and meet Mama Church to help you talk to God… “ Aremu
said
“Mama Church? You know the power of Church can be slow. I want
something that will answer now. So Aremu, you mean you are not capable, I
will go to Odo Eran, I heard there is a new herbalist that is full of power…”
Ajoke said angrily.
“Ajoke, let me give you the wisdom I can lend you, I am a herbalist and I
know how things work, if you go somewhere, they won‟t let you in on this
truth. They will tell you they will take away the effect of the Love portion,
but in actual sense, what they will do is make your daughter fall in love with
her husband back, hence she will become confused. The love portions will
be pulling her into two different directions. To love her husband and to love
the woman. In the Long run, it will run her mad…”
The mention of insanity did not go down well with Ajoke. If her daughter
ran mad, the likes of Iya Rolake would mock her and make the noise
around the village of how she was right about Ajoke being a witch.
***
Freeman struggled with sleep, he didn‟t want to sleep, he was too dazed to
sleep, but Nature couldn‟t be cheated.
216
He dozed off in the Living room…
He saw a woman fighting with her daughter who had offended her, the
woman was so angry with the daughter she was using all her strength to
fight her. She fought her so much, even though the child kept apologizing…
Eventually, when the mother was exhausted from the fight, she stepped
away from the child. To the utter amazement of the Mother and Child, the
mother had sustained so many wounds. She had a lot of holes in her body,
the holes looked like someone had cut part of her flesh out.
Instead of the child to suffer any injury, it was the angry mother that had
all the injuries…
Freeman woke up from his nap…
“What kind of dream is this?”

PART 38
©Opeyemi Akintunde
Beauty heard the cry of the baby far away from the room where she sat with
Lara. Lara had been cleaned up and she laid on their Mattress, while Beauty
sat thinking about her misery.
The cry of the baby stopped suddenly…
Lara sighed deeply… the child had been killed…
Beauty felt firsthand what the term “Heavy Heart” meant. It felt like a stone
had been placed in her chest.
“How can humans be wicked and selfish? “ She said thinking about Baba
Shagba and Winter…
“You were also wicked, you were dating another woman‟s husband. Were
you not selfish and inconsiderate? Dating another woman‟s husband is
equivalent to killing the woman, because you rob her of her full Joy.”
Beauty heard the words in her heart as a reply…
“Most Wickedness is born out of selfishness... When a person desires to

make themselves happy at the expense of another person‟s unhappiness,
they are wicked.” Beauty could tell someone was ministering to her soul.
218
***
“Good Morning, beloved of the Lord, I am here again to bring you good
tidings from the Lord. I was here yesterday and I can tell you Heaven was
happy because some people came to the Lord yesterday. Are you part of
those people, I say big congratulations to you, because you have taken the
wisest decision of your life. Welcome to the family of God… I celebrate
you… Congratulations because you are coming out of that poverty soon, you
are coming out of that depression, you are coming out of that debt, you are
coming out of that captivity… Hallelujah…” Timothy preached with
excitement…
Beauty remembered the voice from the day before. She wasn‟t sure she
wanted to hear anything the man had to say. He Said God was going to
bring her out of the Captivity, but here she was with no hope of coming out.
“Coming out of Captivity doesn‟t happen overnight, so don‟t be

disappointed if God does not show up as early as you want, one thing
however is sure, He will Show up. It may not be at your own timing, but He
will bring you out at the right time. Joseph was in the pit for a while. Guess
who put him in there? His own brothers. God brought Him out of that Pit,
through the hands of those who put him there initially. Our God is very
Mysterious, do you believe God can use your Captors for you. God can do
all things in unbelievable ways to bring you out of your Captivity.
Do you know God can put your fear in the heart of your Captors like he did
for the Children of Israel, in a way that your Captor will release you in a
rush ? These two examples I just gave you buttresses my point about
Timing. Joseph was in his own pit for hours before God brought him out of
the Pit, while the Children of Israel were in Egypt for years… One thing was
however sure, God brought them out…
I don‟t know who I am Speaking to right now, but know that your Captivity
will soon be over. Get busy in your Captivity, grow in the Lord, serve the
Lord. Remember, when Joseph was in Prison, He still interpreted dreams…
219
Don‟t let your Captivity swallow you, draw closer to God and soon you will
have a beautiful song to sing.” Timothy said.
Beauty had listened and she wept sore. She knew without a doubt the Word
was for her. What broke her was the fact that the preacher had told her the
truth---She didn‟t know when her Captivity would be over.
“God, I want to draw close to you in this Captivity, I know someday I will
come out from here”
***
“Where is this place and what are we doing here?” Pamilerin asked the man
in the tree next to her
“We got high and they have captured us?”
“High? As in?” Pamilerin asked as she was confused
“Don‟t tell me you were a victim?” the man asked with pity in his voice
“Please, You are not making Sense,” Pamilerin said
“Did you take Leary?‟
“What is Leary?”
“The new hard drug in town”
220
Pamilerin tried to cast her mind back. The Beach House…She didn‟t take
any hard drug at the beach house. She was sure of it!
“You look like you have never heard it, hope it wasn‟t put in your drink?”
“My drink?” Pamilerin echoed thinking about the Beach house.
“Winter!” Pamilerin remembered Winter handling her a drink.
“Oh my God!, I remember, it‟s possible my friend drugged me. But I still
don‟t understand the correlation of the drug and this place?”
“I have been here for 3 years, I am addicted to Leary. I come in and out.The
Creators of Leary are highly occultic people, who desire to use the souls of
men to do Spiritual tasks. We have Spiritual Mines, and the Occultic people
need workers to mine people‟s lives of their virtues. They decided to find
ways to trap the souls of men. Hence, Leary was created. Leary makes one‟s
Spirit to travel out of their body, therefore, as people take Leary
everywhere, there are demons commissioned to track down Leary users.
Once anyone uses Leary, the demons track the person down and captures
them.” The man explained to Pamilerin.
“So, are you saying, it‟s my Spirit that is here, my body is somewhere else?”
“Exactly, as a dummy”

Ajoke was lost as to what she had to do. Pamilerin was the best of her
Children, Pamilerin was her hope, her other kids were illiterates. Pamilerin
was the one helping with all her financial needs. She didn‟t mind going any
length for her, but going to Mama Church was quite extreme.
Ajoke was not a lover of Christianity, because she felt Christianity was slow.
She felt Christianity was also a religion that couldn‟t deal with people on
one‟s behalf. She loved to teach people lessons in a diabolical way.
Mama Church was not a stranger to her, infact, Mama Church used to be
very close to her. Mama Church, Iya Rolake and Ajoke had been very close
in their younger years, but Mama Church who she knew as Aina gave her
life to Christ when some Missionaries had come to their village. Aina tried
to force Ajoke and Iya Rolake into Christianity but they were not interested.
Though Aina‟s Children did not go to the City like Pamilerin, their lives
were enviable. She had Five daughters and they all were doing well. They
were into business, Poultry, Farming and the richest out of her daughter
was into Bakery. She was the only Bread Maker in their Village.
Mama Church‟s life reflected that though the God of the Christians may not
rush to give answers to the prayers of His believers, but one thing was sure,
He would answer them in grand style eventually.
“Hmm, God of Mama church… I am coming to you, please don‟t disappoint

me.” Ajoke said.

***
Maurine sat on the dining table sipping her coffee… she was reflecting on
how she picked up Pamilerin at the age of 10 and groomed her for 16 years
and yet Pamilerin dare say those terrible things about her.
Her phone rang. It was Freeman calling. She Ignored the call…
***
Freeman knew the best person who could give him the interpretation of the
dream was Dearest Mom, but she was not picking up his call.
Another call intercepted another attempt of his to call Dearest Mom. It was
Chief Gabriel calling.
“Hello Sir! Good Morning Sir. I hope you had a great night sir?” Freeman
Said.
“Yes Freeman, I am good. A quick one, we are going to pend the investment
for a while. I need to rethink my investment decision” Chief said with his
professional voice
“Sir? What? What‟s wrong sir? Did I do something wrong?‟ Freeman said.
He could see everything ending for him.
“No, you didn‟t do anything wrong, I just need to clarify certain things on
my end. Once, I have it settled, I will call you back.” Chief said before
hanging up abruptly.
Freeman turned 360 degrees in his living room. It felt like the room was
turning repeatedly.
223
“God, please… don‟t do this to me.”
“God didn‟t do this to you, you did this to yourself!” a voice replied him.
***
Two days later…
Winter didn‟t understand what was happening anymore . It had been two
days since Pamilerin slept, the drug was meant to wear out after a day and a
half. Winter‟s only consolation was that she was breathing well.
Winter sat her up and propped her with a pillow. Pamilerin‟s eyes were
widely opened but it felt like she was brain drained.
“Pamilerin can you hear me?” Winter asked.
Pamilerin only blinked. She looked like she was in distress.
“Pamilerin answer me...” Fear had set into Winter.
Winter rushed out of the room. She went out to search for the lady who sold
the Leary to her.
“Hey…” Winter said on seeing her.
“Yes, how many wraps?” She asked eagerly.
224
“I don‟t want any wrap.. my friend is behaving strangely… I gave her two
wraps of the Leary and she slept for two days straight. Just now I was able
to wake her up, but she is looking dazed and not saying anything.” Winter
said in a rush.
Winter saw the look of fear in her eyes…
“Let me have a look at her…”
Winter could see fear in the lady and that aggravated Winter‟s fear.
Pamilerin dying or losing her mind was going to destroy her plans. If only
Pamilerin had done the video, Winter would have sent the video to the
organization and she would have made a lot of money from that.
“She took too much.. her brain is fried…” the lady said to Winter.
“What can you do to bring her back?‟
“Me? What do I do? Was I the one who gave her the overdose. You better
take her to a very good hospital, maybe they will be able to flush out the
drugs from her system.” She walked out on saying the last word.
Winter looked around, confused on what she had to do…This was not her
plan…

The next three weeks was eventful for all the players of the game…
Winter had moved Pamilerin back home. She still had the dazed look. She
wasn‟t eating, but Winter had employed a nurse who was giving her
intravenous fluids.
“Pamilerin please don‟t do this to me! Fight this. I know you are in there… I
mean think about the life we are going to have together… Fight this and
come out of it…” Winter said feeling very frustrated.
She was coming to the end of her patience with Pamilerin. If Pamilerin
didn‟t get better, it meant all she had worked for would be in vain. Her
husband in Abuja had told her if she didn‟t return home before the end of
the month, which was two weeks away, their marriage was over. Winter
couldn‟t lose on two ends, she had to think fast…
***
Freeman had not been himself, everything about his life was going down
the drain. In the last three weeks, clients were dropping him. Companies he
was offering ICT services to, asked not to have their contract renewed.
Chief had also blocked his line. It was times like this he needed Pamilerin.
He had tried Pamilerin‟s number severally, but it was unreachable.
226
Pamilerin‟s birth mother did not come visiting again, but called him to tell
him, she was working on getting Pamilerin back.
Dearest Mom was not picking his call.

The Only Person that was with him was his friend Obinna. Obinna was his
University best friend, who despite not being in the country, tried to call
him at least once a month. The call was always a catch-up call which could
take hours. That was the only friend Pamilerin could stand. The last time
Obinna Called, was when he initially met Winter. He had told him, he
couldn‟t talk for long as he was busy at the moment. Obinna had made the
call brief.
Obinna had called after Pamilerin left the house, but Freeman had ignored
his call, but two weeks earlier, he had called Obinna himself explaining
everything to him…
“Freeman, you need to get your wife back !”
“How? I just told you she is not ready to come home.”
“Guy, your wife is your backbone, you and I know you are nothing without
that woman. God gave her to you as a gift.”
“I know Obinna, it is obvious Pamilerin‟s absence in my life is making a lot

of things absent in my life. Obinna, my business is crashing… Pamilerin has
always been my prayer warrior…”
“So my guy, you know this and you are not doing what you ought to do.
Guy, I don‟t joke with my wife. A wife can make or mar you. Don‟t you know
that the devil understands that women are delicate and the gateway to
ruining men? Why do you think the serpent didn‟t go to meet Adam? He
227
knew Adam would not be easily swayed, but the woman was an easy target.
Guy, if you think your wife is the target and you don‟t care what happens to
her, you are mightily mistaken. It‟s you the devil wants to deal with. “
“Obinna is making a lot of sense” Freeman had thought to himself
Freeman remembered the devotional he had stumbled on earlier that day

while scrolling through his mail with the hope of getting a mail from any of
his clients. He went back to mail and it read…
“NOT ALL, JUST A PART OF THEM”

“Since I can't kill him, hurt his family, and if you can't hurt them all, at
least kill one of his daughters” Folabi had told the herbalist
Folabi was referring to Michael, his colleague at work. Michael was the
CEO's best staff. The CEO gave Michael lots of bonuses. He bought a car
for him as a gift despite having an official car.
Folabi hated Michael. Folabi was angry because Michael was a junior
staff to him and in fact, he was the one who interviewed him and
recommended him for employment...
Folabi tried setting him up a few times, but Michael was always going
free...
Folabi became desperate to the point of wanting to kill Michael. On getting

to the herbalist, the herbalist tried killing Michael but failed.
“ The man has a strong head ooo...He can't be killed...I suggest you leave
him” The herbalist had said.
228
Folabi had left very defeated but he was not going to give up.
Folabi went back the next day..
“Since I can't kill him, hurt his family, and if you can't hurt them all, at
least kill one of his daughters”
This reminds me of the story of Balak and Balaam. Balak was so envious
and bitter about the Israelites that he employed Balaam to curse them, but
instead God made Balaam bless them.
Balak refused to give up, he took Balaam to a place where he could see a
part of the Israelites and told Balaam, if he couldn't curse the whole
people, he should at least curse a part of the people...
Why? He knew that if he could curse a part of them, over time, the curse
will spread to the entire camp.
Have they tried to get you, but they have been unsuccessful, you need to
pray that God preserves everything that is yours so that no part belonging
to you, I.e Your business, your family, your children, your finances, your
health e.t.c be tampered with.
Prayer:
Oh Lord, let not any part of my life be Available for the devil's touch in
Jesus name
Numbers 23:13
229
Then King Balak told him, “Come with me to another place. There you will
see another part of the nation of Israel, but not all of them. Curse at least
that many!”
Freeman knew the devotional was for him. He remembered how long it
took him to get a job, he remembered that Pamilerin was the one who gave
him a job after many years. Pamilerin was the one who supported him in
establishing his firm. He remembered the kind of family he came from. The
family that swallowed success.
Freeman did a quick evaluation of his family. Without a doubt, he had come
from a terrible background…

Freeman was from a polygamous family of five wives. His father had
married his mother as the fourth wife. Life, therefore, was a battle growing
up. The unhealthy rivalry was second to none. The wives showed openly the
desire for their kids to be better than the kids of their rivals. Therefore, life
was a battle. His birth name had been Bodunde, but the moment, he left his
father‟s house to go live with his Maternal Uncle, he changed his name to
Freeman. He left home when his mother died. He was finally free from his
father‟s house.
“Am I really Free?, I hope the wicked forces of my father‟s house who are
always bent on crushing people are not after me? I hope they are not the
ones trying to take Pamilerin from me, so I can be brought back to
nothing?”
Freeman rose. He wasn‟t planning to go down, he refused to go down. He

called Obinna Back…
“ Brother you are right!”
“ About?”
“The devil wants to make me obey the law of my father‟s house”
“ hmm…”
“ Number 1, they wanted me to be a polygamist like my father, but

Pamilerin found out and I broke up with my girlfriend. These evil powers of
231
my father‟s house realized they had failed, they thought of another way of
ruining me. They decided to touch my wife. The devil realized my wife
would never watch me be destroyed or reduced to nothing. He decided to
attack her and take her away from me. He raised a serpent against my wife”
“ Yes Brother, and like I said earlier, you are the target. Adam was the
target. The devil wanted to take him away from his place of dominion, he
knew if he subdued his wife, Adam would be subdued automatically which
is exactly what happened. My man, will you let the serpent subdue you?
Now is not the time to push blames on your wife, like Adam did… Instead
get up, ask for Forgiveness for letting the serpent into your home and
rescue your wife.” Obinna said
“ Will you support me?”
“ Sure, what are friends for?”
“Thanks man… how do I start and what do I do?”
“ We must go on a Spiritual rescue mission”
“I wish you were around, so we can go to the house together.”
“Even if I was around, we won‟t go there immediately. The weapon of our

warfare is not carnal. We must settle this case spiritually. The Serpent has
imprisoned Pamilerin‟s Spiritman, we need to get her out of that
imprisonment. The Spirit of man bows to the Spirit of God, we must be in
the Spirit to get Pamilerin‟s Spirit man to bow to the Spirit of God.
Obinna said enlightening Freeman

If Someone had told Ajoke she would be in a church for three weeks, she
never would have believed it.
After leaving Aremu her Herbalist Friend, she went home straight. She
deliberated for two days before finally settling to go to her old-time friend
Aina who was now popularly referred to as Mama Church.
The moment she walked into the church, she felt the shivers. Aina on seeing
her screamed, jumping up from where she sat on the floor reading her
Bible…
“ Ajoke! Halleluya! So God‟s Promise Has eventually come to pass”
“ God‟s Promise?”
“ Ajoke, God Promised me that someday, you will step foot on this Land of
His. I have been praying for God to touch your heart that you might see the
light, and He Kept assuring me that someday, you will be the one to walk
into this place yourself”
“Well, I guess the time is now…but don‟t get your hopes high.”
“Why would you say that?”
“You have always known that my challenge with Christianity is God‟s way of
answering slowly, and the matter in my hand is very urgent”
233
“God is not slow to answer our prayers, but a lot of factors can make Him
seem Slow”
“Like?”
“First and Foremost, Our sins may shut His ears from earing our cry for
help, secondly God is a God of Timing, Most times, He may not answer
some prayers because the time to answer it may not have come. Thirdly,
sometimes people pray amiss, and God will not answer a wrong prayer.
Unlike the herbalist that will kill a friend for you when you ask him to, My
God will never answer the prayer of wickedness. So Ajoke I don‟t know
what brought you here, but bear in mind that God doesn‟t just answer
prayers he will consider your request wholy and take the right decision as to
your request.”
“I understand everything you have said, but do you mean God cannot
answer me Speedily?‟
“God can answer you speedily, as long as you meet His requirement of
accepting His son as your Lord and personal Saviour. Once you have that
access into His Presence, you then sit in His Presence and behave like Jacob
who made up his mind not to let go until God blesses Him. If you have a
request, you can sit in prayer over that matter, till God answers…”
“ I am Ready… It‟s about Pamilerin…”
Ajoke narrated all that happened to Aina, and Aina Assured her, that God
would restore her daughter.
“Father, I bring myself before you, Forgive me of my sins. I accept your son
Jesus Christ as my Lord and personal Saviour. Help me to follow after
234
Christ and live a life of righteousness. Let your Holy Spirit abide in me in
Jesus Name I pray.” Ajoke had prayed as led by Aina.
Ajoke agreed to stay in the Premises for 27 days as instructed by Aina. Aina
told her she perceived in her Spirit that Ajoke should stay and wait upon
the Lord.
Ajoke was on Day 19, when she had a strange dream…
Ajoke saw herself gorgeously dressed on her way out, Iya Rolake was
looking at her from a distance enviously. Iya Rolake went into her room and
knocked at a part of her wall three times like she was knocking at a door.
The wall gave way and Iya Rolake walked into a room. The Room was a
coven…
“ Ajoke… You keep flaunting your daughter‟s wealth so that I can know that
my own daughter is useless, Listen, I know Aremu has fortified you and
your death will not be easy for me. Besides, if you die, I won‟t be able to
mock you. I want to see you reduced to nothing and the only way for me to
do that is to uproot your source of Joy. Pamilerin! Pamilerin! Pamilerin, I
won‟t kill you suddenly, because I want to watch your mother suffer,
instead, I will kill you slowly. Pamilerin, I ask the demon of affliction,
marital problems, sickness to locate you now. I also put in your heart
bitterness towards your mother. Begin to see her as the source of your
problem. Go into error, different kind of unforgivable errors.”
Ajoke woke up scared! Very Scared….

Pamilerin‟s Spirit had been subjected to hard labour in the realm she found
herself. Pamilerin Spirit had to go on evil assignments like attacking
children in their Sleep. Pamilerin‟s Spirit sometimes would be told to go
steal people‟s money from their bags and bring it to the treasury. Most
humans would wake in the morning and realize the money in their bags are
missing. They would not be able to understand what was happening. The
one Pamilerin hated most was the way they had to rape men and women in
their houses. It is the release of the Sperm or the woman‟s gasp of
satisfaction that they brought back to the treasury.
Every day was a day of hunting or mining of virtues. Once the tree prison of
each person was opened, they rushed out like droves to hunt for virtues.
They had been told that if they could reach one thousand souls in one
month, they would be released. Unfortunately, Pamilerin had only reached
269 in her three weeks of hardwork.
“Will I ever get out of here?” Pamilerin thought to herself. Without forcing
it, tears rolled her cheeks…
***
Winter was still in front of Pamilerin when she noticed tears flowing down
her cheeks. She still had her dazed look.
“Pamilern, I knew you were still there. Hey, you don‟t have to cry. Listen, I
am here. You just have to fight this drug in your system and come out of it.”
236
Winter felt a little bit of compassion for Pamilerin as she could imagine
what she was feeling. She knew Pamilerin mind was active, but it felt like
she was in a kind of prison.
Winter thought of the means of getting Pamilerin back to her self.
Baba Shagba!
***
Beauty‟s three weeks had been similar to Ajoke‟s three weeks. The Preacher
was always at the same spot for three weeks twice daily to preach. Beauty
felt like she was in a Bible School. Though she had no Bible, she could recite
some Bible Passages the preacher used in his messages…
“We Overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb and by the Word of Our
Testimony”. The Preacher had made Beauty understand that Jesus‟ blood
that was shed for us on the cross is a powerful weapon. It could be used for
protection and for battle. Beauty realized she could use the blood of Jesus
to overcome the kingdom of darkness. Therefore, ever since she heard that
Scripture, she was always calling the blood of Jesus over Baba Shagba‟s
house and Shrine.
Silently, she would always declare “I plead the blood of Jesus over
everything and everyone in this house. Blood of Jesus destroy all works of
darkness over everyone in this house.
Another Scripture Beauty had Memorized was…
“Surely there is no enchantment against Jacob, neither is there any

divination against Israel: according to this time it shall be said of Jacob and
of Israel, What hath God wrought!”
237
Beauty personalized it “Surely there is no enchantment against Beauty,

neither is there any divination against Beauty: by this time next year it shall
be said of Beauty, What hath God wrought!”
Beauty‟s faith was strong, she knew she wasn‟t going to die in Captivity. She
knew she was going to return home. She knew God had forgiven her for her
Selfishness and fornication. Beauty could tell, soon she was going to get out
of the Lion‟s den. However, the time she had left in the Prison, she was
using it well as Joseph did. The Preacher once said, „Joseph was a cheerful
prisoner and in Prison he helped people interpret their dreams‟.
Beauty became cheerful and useful in the house. Despite being blind, she
helped with Yemisi‟s homework and other children. She would tell them to
read out their notes to her and with that she would help them. Beauty
influenced Lara into listening to the preacher‟s message. God also arrested
Lara. Lara also started reciting Numbers 23 verse 23 always and it felt like
the love veil was tearing off her face daily.
One day, she woke up sharply, asking…
“ What am I doing Here?”
“ Lara!It‟s me Beauty…”
Lara looked at Beauty strangely.
It all came rushing back to her, how she had come to Baba Shagba for a
charm and how she suddenly started liking him.
238
“I remember now, I was Charmed…” Lara said.“Yes! Beauty, that Bible

word about no charmed working against us, must have worked on me…”
“ Yes…”
“I feel like my old self… What do we do? We need to get out of this
place…Let‟s plan on how to get out…” Lara said in a rush…
“No… Calm down Lara… Let us commit it into God‟s hands, I am sure He
will tell us what to do next.”
***
Baba Shagba‟s phone rang. He had so much anger for Winter. She had
abandoned Beauty with him and for three weeks he had been trying to call
her, all to no avail. Baba Shagba was almost selling Beauty to one of those
men who bought human parts but he felt restricted.
“Yes!‟ Baba Shagba answered harshly.
“Baba Shagba, I know you are angry. Please don‟t be, I didn‟t just desert you
because I wanted to.”
“So you are aware you deserted me, you left your blind friend with me to
nurse.”
“ You haven‟t killed her? I thought I told you to dispose her. I have no need
of her anymore” Winter said.
Baba Shagba took a pause… Winter was a devil.

239
“I didn‟t kill her for fear you coming back to ask of her, but since you have
given me the final directive now, don‟t worry I will clear her.”
“Ok, so like I was saying, something unexpected came up. The love portion
did not work on the man, but somehow the wife started liking me instead. I
decided to take advantage of that. I took her to a party and she got high
there. After that, it seems like her senses disappeared. Please I want you to
come over and check her for me…”
“How much?” Baba Shagba asked bluntly.
“How much for what?” Winter replied.
“How Much are you paying me, because my fees have gone up… and don‟t
tell me you don‟t have the money..”
“I don‟t …” Winter replied.
“What about all the money from Beauty‟s account you moved to yours…”
Winter was shocked by the words. She wondered how he knew about that…
“I know things Winter, don‟t underestimate me.” Baba Shagba said

boastfully.
Winter took a deep breath…
240
“I will pay you whatever you want. I want her to be better because once she
is back to her normal state, I can use her to get all her husband‟s wealth.”

Maurine had the strong feeling to calling Pamilerin after seeing her in the
dream begging for her help.
“Dearest Mom, Please help me!”
“Help you? You didn‟t appreciate the help I gave you initially, you felt the
help was not enough”
“I am sorry, Please Mummy, I am trapped… Forgive me…”
Dearest Mom had woken up from that dream and she knew she had to call
her Pamilerin.
She tried dialing Pamilerin‟s number, but it was ending almost immediately
like her number had been barred.
She called Freeman instead.
Freeman had given the sad news of the video he had received from the Lady
and how her number had not been going through.
“Why didn‟t you call me?” Dearest Mom accused Freeman.
242
“Mum I did, In fact there was a revelation I wanted to share with you for
better understanding.”
“What revelation?‟
Freeman narrated the dream to her…
“Mum, I saw a mother who was angry with her daughter. The mother in a
bid to show her anger was beating the child. The Child however was
apologizing and asking for Mercy. The Mother was so angry she didn‟t heed
the daughter‟s plea. Eventually, when the Mother satisfied her rage, she
stepped back only to find her body full of sore, wounds and openings. So,
instead of the child having the injury it was the mother who had the injury.”
Maurine knew what the dream meant. It was a confirmation of the dream
she just had.
She was the mother, and Pamilerin was the child. The beating was the
punishment of neglect. Maurine knew she had to Forgive Pamilerin so that
she won‟t be the one to suffer the consequences of whatever punishment
she was giving to her.
“Hmm… Pamilerin hurt me a lot, but I guess I am still unconsciously seeing

her as not my child because when any of my children hurt me, I don‟t
discard them” Maurine said out loud.
“Mummy, please forgive my wife and please together let us bring her back.
The force of a mother and a husband with God can pull Pamilerin back.”
Freeman pleaded.
243
***
Baba Shagba sat in his Shrine thinking about Beauty and Winter‟s directive
to kill her…
“I hope someday this woman will not kill me too, when she is through with
me. I don‟t trust her. She may get a higher herbalist and finish me.” Baba
Shagba reasoned.
“One step at a time, when we get to that bridge, we will cross it. Let me take
care of the girl” Baba Shagba resolved.
He was leaving for Winter‟s place. It was the perfect timing to kill Beauty
without suspicion. He would fire the arrow at her from Winter‟s place.
Winter had sent him the address and from his estimation, it would take him
four hours to get there. It was going to be a night Job and hopefully, if
everything goes well, he would come home in the morning to meet Beauty‟s
dead body.
***
“That‟s not how Christianity works. The gift of revelation is a special gift
from God, He didn‟t reveal what He did to you for you to confront Iya
Rolake physically. The weapon of our warfare is not carnal. There are
different forces attacking your daughter, from your end and from her
husband‟s end. God has just revealed to you the attack from your end for
you to handle it. When we are through with it, we can now invite the
husband and tackle whatever attack is coming from his end. The attack
could be from the husband‟s girlfriend you said you made blind. Who
knows, someone may be fighting on her behalf” Aina said to a tensed Ajoke
who was on her way to attacking Iya Rolake physically.
244
“Hmm.. so What prayer am I meant to pray?
“Any Power attacking my children as a way of attacking me, God, overthrow

their wickedness and put an end to their evil powers in Jesus Name”… Aina
said.
“I am not leaving here until they call me that my daughter is back home..”
“That‟s the Spirit, that is the Jacob Spirit. The Spirit of „God, I won‟t leave
your Presence until you answer me‟ ” Aina encouraged her.
Ajoke sat on the bare sandy floor of the village church.
As she opened her mouth to talk to her Father, prayer points poured out of
her heart unto God…
“Father, Do not put me to Shame over this Child, Lord, she is the Hope and
light of my family. Lord, do not permit the enemy to put out the light of my
family out of envy. Lord, any power that wants me to weep over my
daughter, Lord give them their own tears in exchange in Jesus name.”
Ajoke travailed. For the years she was not available for Pamilerin, she
decided to make it worthwhile.
***
Maurine on getting home decided to hold a vigil for Pamilerin. She called
three Pastors to Join her in the vigil.
As Maurine sat in the living room, she went through the family Pictures,
looking for one of Pamilerin‟s pictures to use as a point of contact. As she
looked through the Photo Album, she saw for the first time, the partiality
245
Pamilerin had spoken about. In the photos, Pamilerin‟s outfit always looked
odd from that of her daughters‟.
“ God, I am sorry if I failed.”
“I told you to take her as your daughter, not Like your daughter. It is two
different things” a soothing Voice replied her.
“As my daughter, Not like my daughter?” Maurine asked for clarification.
“Yes… I told you AS your daughter. I wanted you to become her mother. If I
wanted you to just help her escape poverty, I would have told you to treat
her like your daughter. You failed me Maurine. Your daughter, who another
woman birthed for you is at the verge of death. I would request her blood
from your hands. That is the dream Freeman had. You thought you were
punishing Pamilerin by abstaining from her, but you didn‟t realize you were
punishing yourself. If you lose Pamilerin, you have lost the daughter who
will take care of you in your old age. Your daughters do not plan on
returning to this country ever. I have seen that future, and I decided to
bring Pamilerin to you, as she will be the one in the country in your old age.
If you let her die now, your old age will be lonely and you will be very
sickly.” The HolySpirit‟s familiar voice educated Maurine…
“My God! Have Mercy on me and Help me to correct my error. Please don‟t
let it be too late…”

Timothy had a strong leading to fast that day, which he did but towards
evening, he started feeling very weak.
At 5:30pm, which was the usual time for him to leave his house to the place
he had been preaching for the past 4 weeks, he laid on his bed faced up…
“Father, I am tired. Can I sleep in today?”
“If you faint in the day of adversity, Your Strength is Small” Timothy heard
in his Spirit.
“ Godddddd!” Timothy said.
He rose from the bed. He had no choice but to obey His Father. He planned
on staying there briefly.
***
It was 6 pm, Obinna had volunteered to join Freeman in his prayers. They
had agreed to pray at intervals of 6pm, 9pm, 12 midnight, 3am , 6am for 3
days straight. Obinna called in and the rate at which Freeman picked up his
phone at the first ring, showed Freeman was ready to get back his wife no
matter.
They started with a session of Praise as led by Obinna…
247
“ We need to thank God for Creating us as Men, we are God‟s First creation
who he placed on this earth to care for this beautiful garden of His. God has
given us different sections of his beautiful garden to care for, you my Friend
you care for ICT needs of this garden called life. I care for the health of
people. Let‟s thank Him for this amazing life he has given us as men. We
thank God we are not Jobless…”
Obinna and Freeman went deep in thanksgiving, though they were far away
in different countries…
“Secondly, let‟s thank Abba father for giving us the gift of marriage..”
They prayed that for another five minutes.
“Thirdly, we need to pray for the Mercy of God. My Man, adultery is one of
the sins God detests so much, so at this point, My Man, we are at the point
of “ God Forgive me or I go nowhere.”
Freeman laid on the floor in his room groaning in prayer.
***
Remi, Venita, Juanita and Theresa heard Freeman‟s groaning from his bed
room…
“Why is Daddy crying?” Theresa asked
“He is not crying, he is praying” Venita clarified
“ About Mum” Juanita asked.

248
Theresa was the only one who didn‟t have the understanding of what was
going on. Freeman had told her, Mummy was on a business course with
Mrs Winter. This was what he had told Juanita and Theresa, but the story
stopped making sense to Juanita when she continually heard Remi and
Venita praying about how their Mum should be free from all forms of
bewitchment. She had asked them why and Venita in frustration had said…
“Juanita, are you blind? Don‟t you know Mum and Dad are having
problems? Mrs. Winter is trying to separate Mum from Dad.” Venita had
said in an exasperated manner.
“Why?‟
“We don‟t know, but what matters is we bringing back Mum and dad
together”
Since that day, Juanita joined them in the daily intercession before
bedtime.
“Why don‟t we start praying as well from now. There is nothing else we are
doing at the moment. While Daddy is praying in the room, why don‟t we
pray as well. Remember the story of Jairus taking Jesus to heal his
daughter, we can change the narrative and we talk to Jesus to bring
Mummy back home…” Remi said enlightening the girls.
The girls raised their voices…
***
Obinna and Freeman were still in the mood of prayer…
249
“My first prayer focus is that I want God to silence any voice commanding
me to obey the polygamous law of my father‟s house.” Freeman said.
“Yes, but let us make it broader, Polygamy may not be the only evil law in
your father‟s house. So Let‟s pray that Lord silence all voices commanding
me to obey any evil law of my father‟s house.”
***
Timothy arrived unusually late. Beauty had told Yewande to go check
outside if the preacher was around. Yewande didn‟t know Beauty was
listening to the preacher.
“You know Uncle Timothy?”
“The Preacher? Is that his name?”
“If it has been the preacher that has been preaching at the T junction for
weeks now, it is the volunteer uncle that comes to our School to preach at
times. His name is Uncle Timothy. I saw him two weeks ago at the T-
Junction. He did wave at me.”
“Please I need to speak to him, He has been the voice of hope speaking to
me for over 4 weeks. Please tell him about me or can you take me to him..”
Beauty said in rush.
Yewande went quiet… In between that silence, Timothy voice came up…
“ Praise the Lord!” Timothy said.
250
“ He is around! Is he the same person you know.”
“Huh huh” Yewande answered quietly.
Beauty understood she was asking for too much. If Yewande took her out of
the house, she would be in trouble.
“Never mind, I understand why you can‟t take me out, you think I will
escape? And put you in trouble? I won‟t do that to you, I promise you that if
you take me out , I will come back here. Please I just need to speak to this
man…” Beauty pleaded.
Yewande was very unsure, she didn‟t think she could do what Beauty was
asking her to do for her.

Yewande heard her father had gone out for the night and was going to
return in the morning. She really wanted to help Beauty, but there was no
way she would help Beauty out without everyone in the compound seeing
her. All the wives were seated in front of their rooms.
“I can‟t …I am sorry Aunty Beauty, but I can go speak to him on your behalf.
What would you want me to say him”
“Just tell him I am the captive that needs to be free. Tell him I gave my life
to Christ the first night he preached about God making Captivity Captive,
tell him I have been following his everyday preaching both morning and
night, but tell him I am still waiting for God to bring me out of this pit. You
can tell him all I told you about how I got here and how my friend is my
betrayer.” Beauty said.
Beauty suddenly stopped hearing his voice… It was unlike him. His message
was quite short.
“ Yewande, are you sure he is not leaving?‟
“Let me be on my way..” Yewande said as she rushed out.
Beauty was shaking, she had to speak to the man.
“Yewande! Where to?”
252
Beauty Froze on hearing Chigozie challenging Yewande.
“God! Please, I need to get out of this Captivity.”
“I want to see one of my teachers outside”
There was a long pause, that took forever to end.
“Ok, make it snappy.”
Beauty exhaled.
Lara walked into the room. She had been in the kitchen all day as it was her
turn to cook for the entire family.
“Are you okay?” Lara asked
“Yes Are you alone?‟
“Yes!”
“Yewande knows the Preacher!”
“Which Preacher?”
“The one we listen to his preaching ”
253
“Really?”

Timothy was very exhausted. He knew he had given a very short message…
He was on the move back home.
“Uncle Timothy!” he heard someone calling. On turning, he realized it is

one of the students from the school he was committed to. He was an
advocate of sexual purity. He made out time to go to different schools on a
monthly basis to minister to them
“Hey!” Timothy said.“How are you? I saw you the other day... You stay
around here?” Timothy asked as he couldn‟t remember her name.
“Yes sir, it‟s been a while you came to our school” Yewande said as she
looked around in fear.
Timothy noticed her uneasiness...
“Are you okay? Is there something you would like to discuss with me?”
Timothy suspected she wanted to discuss an issue with him.
“Yes...”
“Ok?”
254
“It‟s about an aunt living with us.” Yewande Narrated all she could...
Timothy was so perplexed by the reality of what the young girl said to him...
“Where is she?”
“She is inside and there is no way she can get out. My father is not around
but she dare not step out of the gate. We heard one of the women that tried
to escape was struck by lightning.”
“Hmm, tell her that God will surely bring her out. Tell her the same God
who brought Peter out of prison will bring her out. Tell her,I will be praying
for her... Does she have a Bible? Tell her to read Acts 12: 5-17” Timothy
said.
“No, The Bible is an abomination in my house, besides remember she is

blind , she can‟t read...”
“Yes! Then let me read it to you and you will preach to her...”
“Me? preach?”
“Yes! God can use you or better still, I will preach a second time this
evening. Be on your way and tell her that I will be speaking to her through
my message.” Timothy said. He was bubbling with Joy.
255
As Yewande was about to leave, Timothy called her back...
“Your name?”
“Yewande”
“God bless you for this.“
“You are welcome sir, but please can you pray to God for me, that when God
decides to punish my father for the evil he has been doing, that my mother,
my brother and I will be saved and we will be free from this prison like
Aunty Beauty.”
“Yes! There is the story of a prostitute in the Bible who helped the Israelites
when they came to spy their land. She also asked for her safety and that of
her family. She was exempted from the destruction of the land. I believe
you do not like the wickedness of your father‟s house and for that be sure
that you will not be punished alongside your father.”
“Thank you sir! Let me be on my way.” Yewande said.
“God bless you!”
256
Timothy waved at her. Timothy couldn‟t contain his joy. Though the lady
was still in Captivity, he was filled with Joy knowing God was going to bring
out the Lady in the most miraculous way.
This was the big fish, his fiancee told him he had caught.
Timothy jumped up in excitement.
“Thank you Lord!” He said laughing so hard...

Timothy placed a call to Mathew.
Mathew was surprised on seeing his call. He knew it had to be important.

He stepped aside from his colleagues. He was 6 hours behind Nigeria time.
“Yes, Bro Timothy. Good Afternoon...”
“I have met the big fish, I have met the woman in Captivity.” Timothy said
in a hurry.
“Slow down brother! I don‟t understand you brother.”
Timothy explained all that Yewande had explained to him.
“Wow! You mean she is in a Witchdoctor‟s place?” Mathew asked. Ever

since he became friends with Timothy, he had been watching a lot of
Nigerian movies to know the culture of the Nigerian people. He developed
so much interest in Nigeria.. He, therefore, knew how scary Nigerian
herbalists or witchdoctors looked in the movies..
“You should report to the police, since she is there against her will”
258
“It doesn‟t work that way around here, you will be surprised that the police
we are going to report to are friends to the man. They would call him to
inform him before they arrive, what I should have done which I didn‟t think
of doing of was to ask that young girl to get the phone number of a relative
we could contact..” Timothy replied.
“Yes! That‟s true... that would work...”
“But much more than the physical moves we should make, I called you to
inform you about the new development and ask that you join in interceding
for her. If the heavens over Nigeria is blocked over her, if she has an
intercessor in Columbia , it could make a difference... The girl told me her
name is Beauty...
“Beauty, nice. God will give her Beauty for her Ashes”
“ Amen! So let‟s do what‟s in Acts 12:5-17 “
***
Obinna and Freeman were still deep in prayers. They ought to have stopped
to rest for the 9pm session but they were soaked in the Presence of God....
“ Acts 12 from verse 5 reads
Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant prayer was offered to God
for him by the church.” Obinna Read
259
“ Right now Pamilerin is in the prison house of that Winter Lady and we are
following the example of scripture to pray her out...” Obinna said charging
Freeman up.
“ Hmmm...” Freeman said .
“Verse 6 continues... And when Herod was about to bring him out, that
night Peter was sleeping, bound with two chains between two soldiers;
and the guards before the door were keeping the prison.
Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the
prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, “Arise
quickly!” And his chains fell off his hands.
Then the angel said to him, “Gird yourself and tie on your sandals”; and so
he did. And he said to him, “Put on your garment and follow me.”
So he went out and followed him, and did not know that what was done by
the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision.
When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the
iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord;
and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel
departed from him.
And when Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I know for certain that
the Lord has sent His angel, and has delivered me from the hand of Herod
and from all the expectation of the Jewish people.”
260
Obinna read the verses with the intention to boast his friends faith...
“Hmm... I believe God can release Pamilerin out of that prison, the satanic
emotional prison Winter has locked her in”
“ Yes, we don‟t just talk it, we pray it... Now, let us pray and ask the Lord to
send his angel to where Pamilerin is and bring her out. Let‟s pray that her
senses be restored back to her immediately in Jesus name “
***
Simultaneously as Dearest Mom sat on her bed awaiting the pastors arrival,
The HolySpirit laid that Scripture in her heart as well...
“ Acts 12:5-17” Dearest Mom heard in her Spirit.
She got her Bible and read through but the part that struck her most was...
“And when he had considered the thing, he came to the house of Mary the
mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered
together praying.”
It struck her that she was doing exactly what the intercessors did for Peter
when he was in Prison.
261
Mary was not Peter‟s Mother, but yet they had all gathered there to pray for
him.
The same way she had called on some pastors to gather in her house that
night to intercede for Pamilerin.
“Thank you Holy Spirit, for always leading me. I believe Pamilerin will be
free from the Prison of that strange lady in Jesus name.”

“Dear Child of God, know that tonight you are coming out of that prison. I
don‟t know how God will do it, but be sure you are coming out of that
prison. Tell those Prison doors to give way, tell the doors the Angel of the
Lord is coming to bring you out! Say it confidently child of God…” Timothy
said as he preached on. Those who had seen him earlier were surprised that
he had returned there shortly...
“God still has a message for someone” he had told them.
***
Beauty was elated, she had received the message from Yewande and
hearing him talk to her directly gave her joy and hope.
Lara watched as Beauty walked confidently in the room repeating what the
preacher was saying.
“I am walking out of my prison doors. The Angel of the Lord is bringing me

out. It doesn‟t matter that I walked in by myself, what matters is that God is
bringing me out tonight.”
Lara also caught the fire. She also wanted to return home. She joined in the
confession and they burst into laughter. The joy of the HolyGhost filled
them up .
263
***
Chigozie wondered what was going on in Lara‟s room... It felt like a party
there. Anytime, Baba Shagba was not around, she was in control.
She stood up to go and silence them, but few steps away, she stumbled and
crashed into the ground, twisting her ankle.
“Ha!!!” Chigozie screamed.
Lara and Beauty were so deeply ignited by the fire in their confession that
they didn‟t hear Chigozie‟s fall and scream.
“I remember one song.” Lara said suddenly .
“Which song?”
“Paul and Silas
They prayed
They Sang
The Holy Ghost came down!
And the prison doors opened”
264
“Yes! I remember” Beauty screamed in excitement.
“Let‟s sing it”
Beauty was excited, she knew her coming out of that place might not be that
instant or even that day, but she was sure she was coming out of Baba
Shagba‟s place soon.
***
Ajoke laid on the same spot for 4 hours straight praying for Pamilerin. She
knew her child had to be free from the evil she had put herself into.
***
Iya Rolake started having stomach-ache all evening. She thought it was
indigestion but when a friend stopped by her shop and broke the news of
seeing Ajoke at Mama Church, she knew the stomach ache was not
ordinary.
“So it is true that there is no one God cannot arrest” Jumoke said to Iya
Rolake.
“Who did God save?”
“Ajoke, Iya Pamilerin, your friend is presently with your former friend,
Mama Church. I can tell you are the next” Jumoke teased.
265
“I reject it.” Iya Rolake said angrily.“Jumoke, I need to pack up, see you
tomorrow “
Iya Rolake quickly closed up her shop. She had to get to Kiniun( The Lion).
He was the most wicked herbalist/witch doctor in the five villages that
shared a stream.
***
Aina was resting for the day. She suddenly heard “ Iya Rolake is on her way
to Kiniun”
Aina knew that was not good, People didn‟t go to Kiniun for trivial matters.
Kiniun was a Lion like his name, he was a bloodthirsty herbalist. Whenever
people needed to kill other people, Kiniun was the next stop.
Aina jumped from the mat where she laid. She hurriedly walked towards
where Ajoke had laid praying but met her absence.
“Ajoke! Ajoke! Where is she?” Aina asked the other women praying.
“ She went in to take a nap” one of them replied.
“No ooo, now is not the time to sleep”
“She has been praying for the past four hours!” The woman replied.
266
“I know, but this is not yet her hour of rest. Get her for me” Aina said.
The women knew whenever Mama Church spoke with authority laced with
anger, something had happened in the Spirit realm.
***
Baba Shagba arrived at Winter's place at exactly 10:30pm.
“Welcome, Baba Shagba!” Winter greeted him.
Baba Shagba looked around. He was amazed at the display of wealth. He

could tell Beauty's money was part of the money she was lavishing. He saw
Pamilerin seated on the chair like a robot.
“Before you start thinking I have lots of money, all these are scam. I just
bought the house with my husband's money to look rich, I am going to
return the money once everything I want is achieved.”
She saw the way Baba Shagba was staring at Pamilerin, she quickly said...
“This is the woman, I need you to restore her senses back... While you are
working on her, what would you like to eat?”
“ This one is gone, she has journeyed far...” Baba Shagba said.
267
“Are you serious?”
“Yes, don't waste your energy on this...”
“No, Baba Shagba. There is something you can still do. I have lost so much
money trying to play them.”
“Not all games can be won. We win some, we lose some” Baba Shagba said.
“No oooo, I have lost a lot in this game... I have even lost my best friend on
this”.
“There will be another win, count this as a loss, Let's discard her real fast...”
Baba Shagba said. He wanted to rest after a long day and complete his
assignment as regards Beauty. He also wanted that whole episode off his
table.
“Do what you have to do?” Winter said referring to Baba Shagba.
“This is no more in my hands. Find a way to kill her or better still return her
to her family to nurse her till she dies.” Baba Shagba said

“The Spirit of the Lord revealed to me Iya Rolake is on her way to Kiniun.”
Mama Church said.
Ajoke froze, perplexed at why Iya Rolake was bent on fighting her.
“What am I going to do to protect myself!” Ajoke asked with a voice laced in

fear.
No one heard Kiniun and stayed relaxed...
“We need God to intercept her. Send an angel to stop her from getting to
her...” Mama Church said.
“ Aina, you and I know that Iya Rolake doesn't see walls whenever she is on
a mission. What she deserves is for God to kill her.”
“The penalty of death is usually for unrepentant enemies. Let's give her the
benefit of doubt that when the Lord stands in her way, she will repent.”
Mama Church said.
Ajoke wasn't satisfied with the verdict.
269
“Let‟s start the prayer session, the Lord will lead us as we proceed.”
“Ok ma.”
This was around 11 pm. They started with a session of praise and Worship.
“God, we cannot exalt you adequately, Lord please use our praises and
worship to exalt your powerful self.” Mama Church said.
After about five minutes of Praise and Worship, Mama Church said “We
will pray this loud and clear. Oh Lord, stand in the way of anyone visiting
different shrines in other to harm me in Jesus name... “
Ajoke roared the prayer.
***
Iya Rolake had trekked for over 45 minutes, she had about 15 more minutes
before she got to Kiniun's place...
The Stomach ache was getting worse...
“Hey! you! Stop! Where to at this hour of the night?” Iya Rolake heard the
voice of a vigilante.
270
“I received a call that my daughter has put to bed, I need to go take care of
her” Iya Rolake said.
“Woman, that will wait till tomorrow. Go back home, nothing will happen
to your daughter before morning”
“Ah! A lot will happen ooo, in fact a million things will happen. You see
there is a ritual I need to do for her. It is the ritual we do for all new
mothers and it must be done within three hours of the childbirth...” Iya
Rolake said.
The two vigilantes looked at each other, then one spoke “ If what you have
said is true, then the peace of the Almighty God go with you, but if you are
going on an evil assignment, the earth you stand on will fight against you”
the vigilante said making way for her...
***
Pamilerin could hear everything the herbalist and Winter were discussing.
They were both eating pounded yam at that late hour. Though she was tied
in the strange land, she could hear everything that was said in her
surroundings.
All the while for weeks, Winter was always careful speaking in her front, but
after the herbalist had confirmed she was gone, Winter threw caution in the
air discussing everything. Pamilerin picked pieces of the conversation
which she was adding us...
“She is a stupid girl, she was banking on money that didn't exist” Winter
said.
271
“That's what Greed does!” Baba Shagba said.
“So what about the husband? Did the love portion work on him for you?”
Baba Shagba asked.
“No, the stupid girl mistakenly poured the portion away. At first, I wasn't
sure of which one she poured, but now I am sure of what happened. She
gave the husband the hatred portion because as we speak they both hate
each other, but the one that was meant to make the man love me, she
poured away.”
“Ha! Sorry!”
“But that did not stop me, I changed the plan. Since I couldn't get the man
to love me, I tricked her into loving me. Winter doesn't waste time in
changing plans” Winter said boastfully...
“Unlike my other husbands that I killed the women first, before the men,
My plan was to make her kill her husband, inherit him and then I steal the
money from her, but as you said, we can't win all battles... We lose some, we
win some...” Winter said.
“I know you, very soon you will get another idiot...”
272
“ No...I am not in a hurry, I need to finish up the stupid man in Abuja. I

can't afford to lose on both ends. I will discard this thing in the morning,
and return to Abuja. Give me five weeks to find my way back into his heart,
then we strike him. Also I will need help in killing his daughter, Joy” Winter
said concerning her husband.
“ No problem, I am always on standby. Though we didn't make money on

this one, I know when you cash out on the Abuja man, you will make me a
happy man. I only made 1.2 million Naira your friend Beauty paid for her
life”
“Baba Shagba, trust me! How about Beauty? Have you terminated her?”
Winter said laughing.
“I am doing so this night, I am going to kill her from here, so it looks like
she died a natural death”
“Hmm, Beauty ! Beauty! I am sorry, you had to go away just like this, you
were the sister I never had. You were stupidly in love with a married man.
Baba Shagba, which right-thinking girl truly loves a married man? They are
never yours for the taking.
What she should have done was to pretend to love him, kill his wife, marry
the husband, slaughter him afterwards and clear his money. But Beauty!,
You were not smart enough to play the game like that. You were in love,
sorry darling. “ Winter said.
273
Pamilerin dropped few tears.
She realized the fool she had been. She had lost her life, family and
happiness that was certain for fake money that never existed... She realized
she had been played. Winter actually knew Beauty...
“ God! Please forgive me” Pamilerin cried inwardly....
***
Mama Church saw in the Spirit realm that Iya Rolake was proceeding....
“We need to change our prayer point...We will pray that concerning
Pamilerin and Ajoke, every unrelenting enemy that has vowed to end their
lives, that God Himself show Arise and intervene violently against the
enemy in Jesus name...” Mama Church said.
Ajoke was happy with the tune of that prayer...
“My Lord and my God, any unrelenting enemy that wants to see to my end
and the end of my daughter Pamilerinayo, God arise in your Mightiness and
intervene violently in my favour in Jesus name.

the money his wife asked him to sow for the altar beautification...He
remembered it was 1.2 million and he had paid N600, 000 only. His Spirit
moved him to pay up.
He immediately checked through his phone for the text message that had
the account details of the ministry.
He immediately forwarded the remaining money to the account without

delay...
“Lord, I know my wife didn't pay up, I do this on her behalf. Lord let your

Pamilerin saw herself back at the same pit she saw herself months back.
She saw herself on the sand stairs, and the same cow attacking her. She saw
the two men who were creating the stairs out of the sand of the wall of the
pit. They walked closer to her…
“Your husband has empowered us to create the remaining stairs.” Said one
of the men.
Pamilerin watched as they created the stairs in haste...
As soon as they completed the remaining six stairs, Pamilerin came out of
the pit...

Simultaneously, the tree prison she was in, started unfolding itself, the
branches started opening up and her Spirit floated out of the place it was...
It felt like her Spirit knew its route. Pamilerin found herself soaring with
speed till she got to Winter's house. Her Spirit passed through the Window
and entered her body that sat on the chair in the living room.
Winter had left her in the living room, unlike before when she cared for her
thinking she would wake up someday.
Pamilerin moved her fingers and it responded.
“Jesus!” She opened her mouth to say, but it came out as a whisper.
“Stand up and go home!” An invisible voice said to Pamilerin.
Pamilerin looked around, there was no one.
She tested her legs on the ground. She felt the cold feel of the tiles. It had
been a while since she had the feeling. Strangely, the pain in her leg had
disappeared.
Like a child being led by a parent, Pamilerin walked out of the living room
into the compound. She saw the security guard fast asleep.
“Take the key from his Window” The voice directed her again.
Pamilerin did as directed. She opened the gate and walked out of the gate.

Pamilerin felt a gentle breeze blowing on her skin.
“Let‟s go home.” The voice said again.

an abomination.
"Kiniun I am sorry, death is near me and you are the only one who can help
me."
"I can't attend to you now, come back in the morning." Kiniun said
All the women in the compound heard the voice of the woman. They feared
for her as they knew that day was not the day Kiniun saw women...
"I am not going anywhere ooo, Kiniun you have to help me or by morning
you will see a dead woman by your doorstep..." Iya Rolake pleaded.

picking it up from the house, but somehow it was with her. She turned it

She checked through her calls. There were no missed calls. She
remembered all she had done. She knew she couldn't go back to her

She checked her contact list and surprisingly found the number under

She unblocked the number and dialed her number...

Dearest Mom heard her phone ringing, she almost ignored the call but on a

"Hello Pamilerin."
"Mom, I need your help. I am on the road..."

The entire compound was on fire. Lara pulled Beauty "this is our
opportunity to leave here."
"Ok, what about Yewande? We need to see that she is fine as well."
“We will check on her on our way out."
There was a lot of running around in the compound. Chigozie was on the
floor crying for help but no one paid her attention.
Yewande also was running towards Beauty and Lara's room. She met them
at the entrance.
"Aunty Beauty, is this God's way of setting you free?" Yewande asked.
It was at that point Beauty thought about it. God was opening the Prison
doors for her by setting the place on fire...
"I think so Yewande, Let's get out of here..."
"Yes, guess what? It seems the fire has destroyed a lot of charms. My mum
is suddenly saying "What am I still doing here? I need to get out of here
now!"
" God is good! Where will you be going from here?" Beauty asked.

"I don't know..."
"You can come with me to my grandmother's place. It is about 1 hour from

here."
"My place will be better!" Lara said, " It's just 30 minutes walk from here"
"Ok, let me get my mum and brother" Yewande ran off..
No one was trying to put out the fire, All the wives except Chigozie were
looking for how to escape.
The entire place went down to ashes...

Baba Shagba's phone had been ringing without end...
He didn't want anyone disturbing but on checking, he realized it was the

chairman of his street calling...
He smiled, he could guess what must have happened. Beauty must have
died and the women must have created a scene.
"Hello Chairman, good morning sir. I hope all is well."
"No Baba Shagba, your house is on fire!" The chairman replied.

Baba Shagba thought it was a metaphorical statement.
"Really? What happened exactly?" He said.
"No one knows how, but the fire has spread to all the buildings in your
compound. The rate at which it is going, by morning nothing will be left in
your compound. Your wives and kids have left the compound too..."
At that point, Baba Shagba was confused...
"Hold on Chairman, are we talking physical fire?"
" Yes!"
"Abomination, no fire can come near my abode!"
"Baba Shagba, this fire is a devouring angry fire. By the time you get here
nothing will be left of your compound."
The chairman dropped the call. Baba Shagba was as clueless as a newborn.
He brought out his handkerchief. It was a viewing device.
Baba Shagba recited some incantations that his eyes be opened to see what
was going on in his home. The handkerchief did not respond to him...

"Ha! I can't be blind! Never!" Baba Shagba said.
"Don't tell me my power room has been destroyed. Ha! " Baba Shagba
Lamented.
He rose up in fear of what was ahead. He had to get home immediately...

"Winter! You have given me the wrong job oooo" Baba Shagba kept
lamenting as he walked out of the house. He didn't go to Winter's room.

"Your Mother is now born again. Infact she has been on a prayer ground for
your sake for the past three weeks interceding for you!"
"What? Maami, a Christian? How?" Pamilerin asked very surprised.
"Sometimes God uses challenges to draw his children to him, She calls me
every day asking me if I have heard from you."
"Let me speak to her ma!" Pamilerin said excitedly
***
Ajoke was exhausted...They had been praying for close to two hours. Her
voice was really low as the other women were still praying for her and
Pamilerin.
She heard her phone ringing. She imagined it was one of her other children
calling.
"Go pick your call, who knows it might be the answer to our prayers" Aina
said.
Ajoke struggled to get her phone, but energy flowed into her veins on seeing
the Caller ID...
" Pamilerin!" Ajoke mouthed.
***
“Hello Maami, how are you?" Pamilerin said in tears.
289
"Pamilerin is that you?"
"Yes Maami?"
"Where are you?"
"I escaped, I am In Mummy's house."
"My God! My creator thank you! Just stay right there. I am coming to Lagos
right away."
"Ok Maami... but please let the day break! I am sorry for everything I have
done."
"No problem my dear, you were not in your right senses. I have forgiven
you since." Ajoke said excitedly.
***
Ajoke ended the call excitedly.
"God has done it, Pamilerin is out of the house of the wicked woman" Ajoke
said dancing.
Everyone shouted HALLELUYAH...
"I am leaving for Lagos right away?"
290
"This midnight? No way, besides there won't be a bus at this time. Morever,
don't be an ungrateful person. Let us thank the Lord for His deliverance."
***
"Daddy! Daddy" Freeman heard his daughter's voice
He had slept off after his 12 midnight prayer.
Theresa, his youngest daughter was tapping him from sleep..
"Daddy, I saw mummy"
"Where?"
"In my sleep"
"OK?"
"She was a bird in a cage?" Theresa said and Freeman's heart sank.
"But, I saw Jesus went to open the cage and she flew out" Theresa said and
Freeman's face lit up.
"She escaped?" Freeman asked.
"Yes!" Theresa said.

291
"Thank you Jesus!" Freeman said feeling relieved.
"What happened?" Venita said from the doorway. Halfway through her
sleep, she felt Theresa standing up from her side, she thought she wanted to
use the rest room, but after waiting endlessly to hear the sound of the toilet
door, she stood up to be sure she was okay.
"Theresa had a dream, and she saw your mum getting out of the evil cage"
"Amen!" Venita said. That was good news for her as well.
***
"Will my husband accept me back?" Pamilerin said to Dearest Mom.
"With God, all things are possible." Dearest Mom answered.
"Yes, only God can touch his heart. He saw me committing immorality with
her..."
"Before seeing him, we will pray that God will touch his heart ahead "
Dearest Mom said.
"But that woman can't go unpunished. If we let her go, she will destroy
another person or family." Dearest Dad said after a long while of being
silent listening to Pamilerin
"Very true! But if we report to the police, we have no evidence, it will be our
word against hers." Dearest Mom said .
292
"You said, you heard her say, she killed her two husbands and was going to
kill her latest husband?"
"From what she was telling the herbalist, she implied she killed her two
husbands and which was what she wanted to do with me, but failed. She is
planning to kill the man in five weeks from now "
"Where is she now?"
"I left her in the house."
"Let's hope she is still there, if we do not rise up against evil, evil will
continue in the Land."
"What are you planning to do?" Dearest Mom asked. She knew her husband
so well, he was about to do something drastic.

PART 53

Beauty could hear the noise of jubilation in Lara's house as she sat in what
appeared to be their living room. Yewande held her hand.
"They are happy!" Yewande said to Beauty.
"I can tell, I hope I get the same response when I get to my grandmother's
place. You know I ran away from home."
"I remember the story we were told at our school fellowship. The title is the
prodigal son. The son had left home and squandered all his money, but
when he returned home, his father accepted him. I believe your
grandmother will still accept you" Yewande said.
Beauty's heart wanted to explode. That touched her deep down.
"When it's morning, I will want to be on my way." Beauty announced " But
where would you go to?"
"We don't know, my mother said she can't remember the name or house of
any relative in Nigeria. Like I told you, all her family members do not stay
here, they live Wisconsin."
"Then we go together, my grandmother is a very accommodating person. "
294
"Thank you!" Yewande's mother spoke finally . She had been weeping ever
since they got out of the compound.
***
Baba Shagba could feel his heart palpitation. He felt his heart was going to
burst out of his body...
"My Power house of over 20 years cannot burn down just like that!" He
kept encouraging himself.
He had been calling Chigozie but she wasn't picking up the call.
When the number eventually stopped ringing, he knew there was really fire
on the mountain.
***
Winter had slept off and the left earpiece had fallen off her ear. She could
hear heavy footsteps approaching her room...
"Who is that?" She said jumping up from the bed.
" Baba Shagba...Baba Shagba...Is that you?" Winter rushed to the door to
lock herself in, but it was too late.
A very strong hand pushed the door back.
Winter fell to the floor and as she looked up she saw three fierce looking
military men with Pamilerin.
295
Winter was too shocked to think...
" Pam...pam..." She stuttered.
***
Baba Shagba got to his house at 5am.
He saw the ruins of his house, there was nothing left in his compound.
Everything had been brought down to ruins. What he saw was smoke and
ashes.
He walked into the compound hoping it was all a dream. He went straight
to his power room and nothing was left. Everything got destroyed. He
however saw, a burnt human shape. On looking closely, he could tell it was
Chigozie.
No one helped Chigozie. She had died in the fire....
Baba Shagba's heart could not bear it, his heart failed and he fell to the
ground like a pack of cards...
***
Aina had insisted Ajoke stay till around 7am, before she left for the city.
As Ajoke was leaving the church compound, some of the women who had
gone to the stream to get water very early came rushing in...
296
"Mama Church! Iya Rolake is dead. Her body was dropped by the stream..."
One of the woman shouted.
"Ha!" Mama Church exclaimed . Ajoke saw the look of pain in Aina's face.
She knew Aina wished Iya Rolake had repented instead of dying.
"She eventually made it to Kiniun's place. Something terrible must have

happened there. They dumped her by the stream we all share so that her
family would see her..." One of the women Lamented.
Ajoke dropped her bag and walked back to Aina.
"Mama Church, I know you wished she repented, but like you know, there
are unrelenting enemies who are not ready for repentance. I am sure it was
our prayer that saved my daughter and I overnight. Iya Rolake went to
Kiniun to have me killed. I heard you preaching last sunday that God will
give men for our lives. That body by the stream could have been me if Iya
Rolake had succeeded at Kiniun's place." Ajoke said.
"Hmm, you are right. I am sorry for looking unhappy. I am just passionate
about souls. It's not God's will for a sinner to die without repentance, but
the Bible says we should suffer no witch to live. It is the unrelenting kind of
witches like Iya Rolake that the Bible was referring to."
"May her soul rest in peace." Ajoke said.
"That can only happen if she had given her life to Christ, which I doubt.
When a sinner dies, they don't rest in peace, they gnash their teeth in hell."
"Hmm...."
297
"Go on, go and meet your daughter. God's protection goes with you." Mama
Church said praying for Ajoke.
***
"I will talk, I promise." Winter had been put under serious torture for over
an hour. The military kind of torture. Dearest Dad was best friends with a
Colonel. He had asked his friend for the favour that midnight and
immediately he had sent some of his junior officers to his house. Together,
with Pamilerin and Dearest Dad, they had gone to Winter's place.
"So are you ready to tell us who you are.?" Said one of the military officers
Winter nodded...
"My name is Winter, but my birth name is Salome. My mother was a drug
addict. My mother gave birth to me on the streets. I was raised on the
street, by the street and I had to learn to survive on the street. I had started
living on my own at the age of 15 years old. Life was hard for me, I decided
to travel to Italy for prostitution. On getting to Italy, things turned out hard
Italy prostitution was not lucrative, so one of my friends advised me I
should go with her to Jamaica. She told me, we could change our identity,
get married to rich men, kill the men and inherit their money.
My friend and I went to Jamaica.
On getting to Jamaica, we didn't find single rich men, so we decided to go

for married rich men. We knew the only way to kill the man was to first kill
his wife. So, I killed the wife of my husband."
298
"How?"
"Charm... I contacted a friend in Nigeria who introduced me to Baba

Shagba..."
"How did she die?" One of the fearful looking soldiers questioned.
"By… by....accident, which was caused by Baba Shagba, afterwards I

married the man and killed him too."
Winter confessed everything she had done, and they had it recorded. The
fear of the Soldiers made her blurt out everything.
Pamilerin heard everything as she sat in the next room. She wept sorely.
“God! Is that how I would have died..." Pamilerin said.
Winter said everything about Beauty and how Beauty was at Baba Shagba's
place.
The Colonel directed his soldiers to take Winter directly to the Inspector of
police who was his friend. Dearest Dad had forwarded the audio recording
to him.
He was so angry, he called the Inspector of police, telling him they had an
international criminal. He also sent the audio recording to the Inspector of
Police.
Winter was already at the Police headquarters by 6 am...

299
She couldn't believe what was going on. Everything was happening so fast
and unpredictable, she thought she was the master of scheming, but she
could tell an Invisible hand was the one playing the present game of her
being caught and ridiculed.
Her statement was taken. Immediately, investigation commenced and all

her claims were ascertained.
In 24 hours, They had contacted the police department in Jamaica and it
was verified that indeed she was married to a man who died six months
after their marriage...
Same investigation was done for Canada.
They contacted her present husband who verified everything she had
confessed including how his wife had died...
The police however could not charge her to court based on killing people
diabolically; instead they worked hard to find what could be used to nail
her. They succeeded by finding different cases of fraud related to her bank
accounts.
She confessed to duping a lot of people.
Her story was released by several media houses.
Through this, Beauty who had moved in with her grandmother heard about
her arrest.
300
Beauty came out testifying against her on TV. Beauty said her side of the
story, without exonerating herself, she said the areas she was guilty and
further corroborated the fraudulent claim by proving Winter emptied her
account.
Winter was sentenced to 14 years imprisonment with hard labour.
Pamilerin on the other hand returned home that same day after Winter was
arrested.
It wasn't easy for Freeman, he thought he had forgiven her, but on seeing
her when Dearest Mom brought her back home, the memories of the video
he had seen plagued him.
It took them two months of healing before they came back together as
husband and Wife.
Beauty on the other hand started adjusting to being blind, however when
she came out to testify against Winter, Timothy got to see her. He traced
her and the day he saw her, the meeting was a delightful one.
Beauty had returned to her grandmother‟s with Yewande and her family
were living with them.
Timothy had come to the house and his greeting of "Peace be unto this
house" woke Beauty from her sleep.
Beauty rushed to the entrance.
" Preacher...My preacher...Is that you?"

301
Timothy broke down in tears as Beauty hugged him tightly...
" Thank you my Preacher, thank you..." She kept saying over and over.
" I will like you to speak with someone who we were interceding together on
your behalf"
"Really?" Beauty said
"Yes.." Timothy did a video call to Mathew...
Mathew saw Beauty via the video call and the Word that God had been
impressing in his heart for months made meaning ..
"I am giving you Beauty for your Ashes"
Mathew knew the blind lady was the woman God wanted to give him as a
wife in replacement of his long time fiancee who left him to marry a wealthy
sailor.
"Hello, Sis Beauty!" Mathew said.
Beauty's heart skipped... She loved the texture of his voice....
302
EPILOGUE
©Opeyemi Akintunde
Pamilerin and Freeman were returning from Beauty's wedding .
Beauty had reached out to them after Winter was sentenced to prison...
She had asked for their forgiveness...
" I am sorry for all your family went through. My selfishness started this. If
I had been mindful of you, I won't have dated your husband... Emotions are
real and we can't help but feel it, but we must be wise and mindful of
others. I paid for my selfishness too, I can't make use of my eyes but I am
thankful for life" Beauty had said to Pamilerin and Freeman
“I am sorry for also leading you on, if I had stood my ground to be faithful
to my family, all that won't have happened. Remember, it takes two to
tangle...I know the statement that started the whole fire was when I told
you “I love you but my wife had to be dead before I could marry you". If I
never gave you the possibility of that opening, you would never have fallen
for Winter's Wiles.
Freeman's business had been restored, Pamilerin gave it her all in prayer
for restoration and that evidently happened.
After a year of them coming back together, Chief resurfaced and signed the
investment partnership with Freeman...
Ajoke joined Aina in her ministry. She decided to serve the Lord all her life.
Remi gained admission to study Mass Communication. She made a

promise to Pamilerin to write her first Novel on the event that happened in
their lives.
303
Venita, Juanita and Theresa got a little brother, after their parents came
back together. He was named Emmanuel ( God with us).
Yewande contacted her Mother's family online. Her Mother's family was so
happy to hear from her after 15 years. The family ensured they relocated to
Wisconsin.
Baba Shagba became paralyzed for 1 year and 6 months before he

eventually died after giving his life to Christ.
Lara returned to school. She became devoted to God.
In between those two years, Timothy got married to his Fiancee, Justina
and Mathew and Beauty became close.
Their wedding was a beautiful love story, they courted for two years of
which Mathew visited her four times in Nigeria during the two years.
As Pamilerin and Freeman rode back home from Beauty's wedding,

Freeman said,
“Any kind of Love that has a BUT to it never ends well...Love should be... " I
LOVE YOU AND I am ready to stay with you forever.. "
“Yes, Even when God spoke about the Love he had for humans, it states...
FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD THAT HE GAVE HIS ONLY
BEGOTTEN SON...Love statements like...I LOVE YOU BUT I FEEL LIKE
WE SHOULDN'T BE MARRIED is writing one‟s suicide note... " Pamilerin
said laughing
"OR I LOVE YOU BUT I AM SCARED" Freeman said
" Or I LOVE YOU, BUT MY PARENTS HATE YOU..."
"Or I LOVE YOU, BUT OUR GENOTYPE SAYS OTHERWISE"
" or I LOVE YOU, BUT WE HAVE DIFFERENT RELIGIONS always have

its issues..."
304
"Yes...and that's why I am happy we scaled through all we went through....

Imagine! Beauty would have lost this great man. She never knew God was
preparing a wonderful man like Mathew for her, but she was bent on killing
herself on a love that had its But...." Freeman said
After a long silence, Freeman held Pamilerin's hand in the car...
"Pamilerin, I LOVE YOU AND I AM GRATEFUL TO HAVE YOU..."
“Freeman, I LOVE YOU AND I WILL ALWAYS DO..."
The End....
ALL GLORY TO GOD FOR THE LOVE HE HAS FOR US THAT

HAS NO “BUT….”

"Dad is back!” Juanita screamed from the living room.

"You don't mean it!" Freeman replied.

"I am serious Daddy!"

"So what punishment did the teacher give him?"

"He was told to go to the Naughty corner!"

"Yes, Theresa! Reflect means to think deeply!" Freeman answered knowing

"Yes... mummy is absolutely right!"

Pamilerin deliberately said those words, she wanted Freeman to reflect on

"Juanita! Theresa! it's time to go to bed. Tomorrow is here already" Venita

"It's not yet 10..." Juanita rebelled.

"Remi is in the kitchen!" Pamilerin replied.

"Remi!" Freeman called out.

"To your room!" Freeman responded.

"To your room!" Freeman repeated.

"Who is she?" Pamilerin asked firmly without perambulating.

"Who?" Freeman was caught off guard.

"The girl you are cheating on me with?"

"Beauty!" Freeman replied. He knew there was no point lying. Pamilerin

"Yes... Babe... I am!"

"Ok...thank you!" Pamilerin said as she walked away.

"Hello Beauty!" he said into the phone.

"What did she say?" Pamilerin asked.

"She said it's okay!" Freeman lied.
